Members Aback Posted May 31, 2022 Members Share Posted May 31, 2022 I didn't know that DD was secretive about his Jewish heritage and embraced it later in his career -- although I'll admit back then, reading his interviews about the dreadful Reliquary storyline, it was the very first time I had seen him mention his Jewish background.

Members j swift Posted June 1, 2022 Members Share Posted June 1, 2022 I still don't know why they insisted using the word reliquary rather than ark, which is a much more common term in synagogues. Maybe the writers were thinking of the torah crown, or maybe they thought ark would remind people of Indiana Jones, but it was obviously a choice made by a production staffed by people who had never been to Hebrew school.

Members dolphziggler Posted June 2, 2022 Members Share Posted June 2, 2022 DOOL's Alex Marshall writing a screenplay after the whole Stefano/slasher/concert chaos, in 1984. Quinn Redeker, the actor who played Alex, was actually an Oscar nominated screenwriter for co-writing The Deer Hunter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Broderick Posted June 3, 2022 Members Share Posted June 3, 2022 I don't think he was necessarily "secretive" about it; he just didn't readily discuss it until he was in his 40s and had a bunch of kids. (Maybe it began to take on a greater significance for him at that point.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
