Greek Boy Makes Whoopee In Rome
(P.naga prasad)
Greek boy makes whoopee in Rome Rome:Another bride:Another groom:another sunny honeymoon,another season,another reason for making shoopee?Like the song by sammy kahn,we made whoopee in rome last weekend,the excuse being-yes,you guesses it- a wedding. Boncompagni ludovisi and hs former wife Benedetta,born BArberini colonna,married off their boy bante to delphine lapham,daughter of two very old friends of mine,lewis and john lapham. Lou- as I call him because,although he?posh,he has always fought for the underdog-was the star witness for the defence of the recent lawsuit by Roman Polanski against vanity fair. Which VF of course lost because it took place in the UK. As Graydon carter wrote afterwards,it was hard to see how one ocud injure the reputation of a man who had pleaded guilty to statuty rape,had fled the country in which the utrage had taken place,and was now seeking damages for a story which mistakely had him propositioning a woman at Elaines?s before the funeral of his murdered wife. Had I known about the case, I could have been of some assistance, but it?s just as well to let bygones be bygones. The winter after the tragedy of Sharon Tate?s tortune and murder. Polanski arrived for the first time in Gstaad. Despite not having many friends there,he was nevertheless of what he had gone through it didn?t last. Within a month, he was nevertheless made to feel welcome everywhere becaue of what he had gone through. It didn?t? lst. Within it month,he was banned form the Eagle over a dalliance with a young girl, and the he and I had a falling out. It was nothing important,kid stuff reallybut he did get bruce lee to fly all the way over form Hollywood to strainghten me out. Actually I wish Polanski well,especially now that he has rehabilitated fagin with the great Ronald harwood. Roman has always been a difficult character. And his problem was that, after the tate murder,he thought the world owed him. Which it did, but it doesn?t always work that way. He never paiud the price for what he did in California long ago,choosing to live in Europe instead,which may be the smartest thing he ever did. But back to the weeding. The new princess bonocompagni is a childhood friend of my daughter. And we will soon be related. My young son is also getting hitched ot the beautiful granddaughter of another grand roman family,the borgheses,so we will be back in ?Rome sometime next year for yet another weeding. This one will be tricky, It?s easy watching other young people get married. But, when it comesto one?s own,I no longer trust myself. So nw the taki brood has move form Austrian nobles ro Raomsn. A bit like Alaric the Visigoth, who is 410 AD moved to rome and sacked the place. But enough of suchtalk. If you rally want a cheap laugh,read about jack straw touring Alabama withcondi rice trying to life bush?s poll ratings. If one aske the first 100,000 alabamans in the telephone book who jack straw wa, I?ll bet my last green back no more than 10 would know. Pensaci, or go figure, as they used to sya in Roma.
