I have no idea, I found it on that Italian "Monty Python" forum. MrsT can tell us what is from, you bet! Oooooh that neck...(this is me, not Mrsthing )
Breaking news: one of the Italian Monty Python Forum administrators is registered here and has just tweeted me the title of the movie this pic is from. Log in immediately, girl!
It's from "Romance With a Double Bass", and he's playing the bass violin, not the cello. The bass has to be played standing up, because it's so big. Ironically, they're often played by smallish people.
The girl is shy and modest, I understand it. But...get a grip! (I learned this expression here, Lozzy taught me that one) Come on, girl! Or mrsthing will tell the title!
Those two white things near his gorgeous, vampirizable neck are the strings on the bass fiddle. The head of the instrument is hidden by John's sexy face.
BTW, gentlemen forum readers, "Romance with a Double Bass" is worth renting or owning. You get to see Connie Booth in her prime absolutely starkers, standing with her legs apart. I'll bet John was just trembling with delight when that scene was shot.
You're too kind, and I like you all but I'm shy. I only wrote to please Valetudinaria :) I prefer sitting there in the corner and hearing you chatting, if you don't mind. I promise I won't disturb you and I won't tell anyone what I hear!
You know, it's so strange for me to think there are people who sit here regularly and just read what we have to say. There is no way we are that interesting.
He may have used the same carpet for those eyelashes! Wow! I'll have to find this movie! Not really interested in the starkers part... but he's adorable!
