Paul Prudhomme


Does anyone know if Chef Paul Prudhomme appears in this film in a cameo role? I watched it (again) the other night and there is a scene in the restaurant where a Chef Paul is refusing Remy's check. I thought the chef bore quite a resemblance to Mr. Prudhomme, but he is not listed in the credits on this site.

I thought he looked like the guy from Hee Haw. Seriously.......didn't he used to be on Hee Haw? I think he was in Mississippi Burning too.

According to the cast listing on the imdb site, Chef Paul is played by Gailard Sartain. Sartain has his own website if you are interested in more information on him. He has been a character actor in several movies.

that is definately not Paul Prudhomme, though i think they tried to get someone who bore a resemblence to the chef on purpose.

It's the Hee-Haw guy

fflaminga,

Good guess, but no. The chef and restaurant owner, who came to Remy's table was a local Cajun actor, I think. Or, because of his name, I'm guessing he was of Cajun roots and descent. NOT Prudhomme, however.

The more Ken Loach films I see, the more I think they need English subtitles.
