am applauding!! Also, stuck on a train...

Thank you! I had to make up for begging for help on the Olympic star!

Now if I can tear myself away from Soapbox All Politics, I'll try to come up with somebody worthy of our attention!

I give you Mr. B.

Well done all around.

Is Mr. B. still with us?

USian?

Mr. B is neither living nor a USian.

Was he an intellectual?

I would say yes he was an intellectual.

European born?

Apparently I posted my response on the wrong thread. Awkward as it was a very serious Soapbox All Politics thread.

OK so yes he was European born!

That's the only category I have blocked! Was he alive during the 20th century?

Yes he was. (Sorry you skip Soapbox All Politics. It is fascinating.)

Was he known for being a political activist?

No, he was not known for political activism.

Known for artistic endeavors, such as theater, visual art or music (to name a few)?

Yes, he was known for artistic endeavors.

Music?

Not music.

Writing, like fiction?

He did write. Perhaps not the first thing that would come to your mind.

Primarily known for performance arts?

Yes but not as the performer.

Film?

Yes (plays as well)

Italian?

Not Italian

was B a native English speaker?

Nope.

A director or producer, or similar?

Yes to both director and producer!

Kinda figured that given "film" but not "performer"... was thinking Bertolucci but he's italian and alive. MAybe Bresson....
