As something of a fan of the tv comedy writing duo writers Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant, we were surprised to see a profile in the Arts and Leisure section of the Times. From the Old Gray Lady:
"Recently, the screenwriters Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant had a similar experience with 'Let’s Go to Prison.' They collaborated on the screenplay, but when Mr. Lennon saw the finished film, he said, 'I was flabbergasted because I recognized the entire movie.'
"Mr. Grant added, 'In our heads, a lot of the stuff was exactly like that' — including a prison-cell assault accompanied by the easy-jazz classic 'Feels So Good.'
"'It was one of my most satisfying days in show business,' Mr. Lennon said, 'hearing Chuck Mangione over the rape scene.'"
Considering that at least one of the parties in that unfortunate scene of involuntary man-love will have to "get in touch with his feminine side," The Corsair would have went with Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights," or, at the very least, a touch of Joni Mitchell.
