"Perfect
Strangers" star Mark Linn-Baker has gone from work to
work. He's using the beginning of his series hiatus to
oversee final post-production on "Fanny," the
big-screen feature he co-produced, which stars Patricia Wettig,
Elizabeth McGovern and John Heard. "It's a
character piece about two sisters who are kind of holding each
other down . . . until one of them (Wettig) commits
suicide," says Linn-Baker, who also tells us the project
has been in development for five years at his Vassar-based New
York Stage & Film Co. He expects to shop the movie at
the Cannes Film Festival.
Meanwhile,
Linn-Baker plans to get in some tubthumping on behalf of
"Noises Off" -- the soon-to-debut Peter Bogdanovich
feature farce in which he co-stars -- and will then dive into
work preparing the next season of plays for the New York Stage
& Film Co. "It never stops, thank goodness,"
he says. "I guess I'm what you'd call a
workaholic."
