An actor to play Eldritch?...

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Well, I've recently seen 2 tv movies, one about the Temptations other about John Denver, and though of course it's not going to happen (?), I was wondering, before I ask it on Dominion - start praying for my poor soul :roll: - if any such movie was made to portray the Sisters' career, what actor was best to play Eldritch, Hussey, Craig, which actress for Patricia, etc?...

Preferably, someone alive?...

(I swear I don't have a clue)

Not sure about the smiling, it could be a grimace or maybe just the effects of trapped wind ........... :lol:

You're right about the Captain Sensible thing though and what the hell was he thinking when he bought that shirt?!! ......... :eek:

John Hurt, yes, a nice choice for this "era". Peter O'Toole for the very end. :twisted:

Tina Turner as Patsy wouldn't it be a little too dark?...
