Great Pipe Cameo in Otherwise Terrible Film

[ontariopiper]

SO I watched the latest (last??) Transformers movie last week. Horrible film, cannot bash it enough as a movie. No plot, useless ancillary characters, trite one-liners, awful editing - in short, everything Michael Bay is known for.

The one, single, shining moment in the entire mess is a short scene in which Anthony Hopkins is shown smoking a beautiful Peterson Amber Spigot in what looks to me like an 05 shape (?).

Nice! :cheers:

I'll take you at your word about the flick, Charles. But ya, that's a great shot of Anthony Perkins with a Pete in his gob!


Cheers,

RR

Strange place to find such a nice pipe.

Hopkins' character is the 8th Earl of something or other, so not too far fetched that an English lord might have a premium Pete.

I was impressed that he actually smoked the pipe instead of just making a show of it. Good man!

Began watching "The Terror" on AMC tonight. In the second episode, the expedition leader, Sir John Franklin smokes a nice churchwarden pipe. Will have to try to find a picture.

So, can a pipe cameo save an otherwise poor movie? On this board, perhaps.
