"My thoughts of self...in about the proportion of vermouth to gin in a dry martini."
3. Februar 2006
This BBC production features a sterling cast as P. G. Wodehouse continues the adventures of Bertie Wooster (Richard Briers), an often silly member of the upper class who depends on his much more sensible "gentleman's gentleman," Jeeves (Michael Hordern), to keep his life from falling apart. In this novel, Wooster has been growing a mustache for two weeks, and Jeeves does not approve, nor do any of his other friends-except Lady Florence Craye (Liza Goddard), his former fiancée, now engaged to Stilton Cheesewright (James Villiers).
The fate of the mustache is the starting point for Wodehouse's comedy of errors, involving engagements made and broken, Bertie's chance to invest in a play, Aunt Dahlia's (Vivian Pickles) sale of her pearls to finance her magazine, her husband's decision to have the missing pearls appraised, and Bertie's arrest at a nightclub to which he has taken Lady Florence to do "research" for her book. Not surprisingly, it is the resilient Jeeves who comes to the rescue, time and time again, proving that good sense and grounding in the real world are far more important than the silly pretensions of Bertie and his friends.
Several actors deserve special mention for their ability to make their roles come alive in this production. Richard Briers, as Bertie, conveys the slightly smug, slightly pretentious attitudes and frantic activity of a young man who feels entitled, by birth, to the good life. Michael Hordern is terrific as Jeeves, using his deep bass voice to make trenchant remarks without sounding rude, and his scenes with Bertie, in which he gives advice while never forgetting his "place," are unforgettable. Vivian Pickles comes close to stealing the show as Aunt Dahlia, a dotty woman with a mind of her own whose ability to tell everyone exactly what she thinks adds immeasurably to the comedy.
Wodehouse's gentle satire of upperclass life appeals to a broad spectrum of readers, and the acting in this production brings it even more vividly to life. The dramatic ironies and well acted dialogue create a fast-moving series of outrageous scenes in which Jeeves, the "gentleman's gentleman" proves to be the real hero, the one person who knows how to live in this silly world. n Mary Whipple
