Who would play Harry Lime Get him a zither; Here’s Orson, big and round, Welles! We’ll consider! There’s no discouragement Shall make him once relent His first avowed intent To be an actor. Whoso would tread the boards Or grace a sound stage. Scarlet Johansson attracted hoards – Old men and teenage. No lion can her fright, She’ll with directors fight, She still asserts her right To be an actor. Hobgoblin nor foul fiend Can daunt their spirit, They know they at the end Oscars may merit. Even Clooney donned a mask, Played Batman when they asked, He was equal to the task To be an actor.
With sincere apologies to John Bunyan who wrote A Pilgrim’s Progress, and Ralph Vaughan Williams who set it to music. Please leave a comment, maybe buy me a coffee.
