Extended
mealtime conversation, from a two-hander play, which,
against all the odds, somehow manages to be fascinating.
If you want to relive the experience (expensively) with
a friend, the restaurant is the romantic but pricy Cafe
des Artistes in the Hotel des Artistes, 1
West 67th Street at Central Park West, Manhattan
(tel:212.877.3500, jacket and tie required).
The hotel was once home to the likes of Isadora Duncan,
Alexander Wollcott, NoÎl Coward and Norman Rockwell.
Simple, then? Well, not quite. The movie was shot in
Richmond, Virginia.
Due to budgetary restrictions, a non-union crew was
used, which meant relocating from New York.
The restaurantís interior was recreated in the Grand
Ballroom of the, then closed-down Jefferson
Hotel, 101 West Franklin Street at Adams Street
in Richmond.
The grandiose Beaux Arts building, dating from 1895,
had been damaged by fire, but reopened in its full splendour
again as the Jefferson Sheraton in 1986 (tel: 804/788.8000).
