[UA] hook needs idea

[Royal Minister of Stuff]

The hat box idea with John Goodman (I wonder if his
stage name is derived from Joque Bonhomme) is stolen
from the Cohen Brothers' "Barton Fink," which is also
a must see for pure weirdness value.  "Night Must
Fall" is, of course, an over-the-top play which may
have inspired "Barton Fink."  It was written by an
author who had the same name as the person who
originally performed the lead roll of disgruntled
bellboy.

The thing about the hat box is, the main thing, is
that when the body of the dead woman was found, and
this is the important part, she was missing her head.


"Them Eyes," the bellboy says in "Night Must Fall",
"They Just Keep Starin'"
