Fuck Yeah Oliver Reed

salesonfilm:

“Along with the rest of the cast [of The Three Musketeers] Reed stayed in a plush hotel in Madrid. As a practical joke Reed removed the goldfish from the ornamental pond in the dining room at the dead of night, keeping them in his bath, and replaced them with fish-shaped carrots. The following morning at breakfast he dived in and began devouring what his horror-struck fellow guests presumed were the helpless ‘live’ fish. The manager called the police and Reed was hauled off the premises bellowing, ‘You can’t touch me! I’m one of the musketeers!’”
