Mr. Cutty is really John McCain


I saw The Associate on TV recently, and was struck by the resemblance between "Mr. Cutty" and John McCain, in both voice and appearance. Except for th ponytail, which Senator McCain should consider!

When my Mum and I watched this earlier, we both thought that Mr Cutty was the image of George Washington.

Actually, every time I see a picture in the media of Bernard Madoff -- I'm instantly reminded of Mr. Cutter. I wonder if that was intentional at the time. Madoff was the undisputed genius of Wall Street.

I miss Big Band music and talented singers. Leonard Cohen is my idol. Civility, harmony, unity!

looks more like Marlon Brando to me, and I cracked out laughing when I heard one of the businessmen who was trying to approach Cutty in the limo saying something like "I could swear he is Marlon Brando" :D:D

reply

another layer to that scene in the limo....Eli Wallach and Marlon Brando were contemporaries, studying The Method together and co-starring in many productions together.

It was supposed to be Marlon Brando. The Drag Queen said as much.
