Anthony Shaffer

... now that you're on a, on a Tuesday Weld kick.

Um, it was written by Anthony Shaffer, the British, uh, mystery writer who wrote Sleuth.

Oh, yeah.

And he wrote the screenplay for another movie I like a lot, Frenzy, Alfred Hitchcock's Frenzy.

They didn't want anything to do with Tony Shaffer.

Because Tony Schaffer knew the story.

There's no mention of Able Danger in the 9/11 Commission report.

No mention at all.

So Tony Schaffer publishes his book after he's out of the service.

Normal protocol is you go to your boss, you get preapproval.

His boss preapproved the book.

As the book's in publishing, our government finds out.

Sleuth was directed by Joseph Mankiewicz, who has been Mankiewicz's father.

And it was a play written by Anthony Schaffer, who...

Or Schaffer.

i've always heard it as scheffer but that's okay okay

And...

Suddenly they were doing a play called Murderer for the West End by Tony Schaffer, Peter Schaffer's brother.

And Tony Schaffer had written Sleuth, so that had been an amazing success.

So he wrote a play called Murderer.

So they asked me to audition, and every girl in London had auditioned for this play, and I knew most of them.
