The Batman Who Couldn't Afford to Orgy
Frank Gorshin was always on the edge of anxiety and madness as Riddler. And I like that. I love to do scenes with people who are on the edge and who really explore every little nuance.
If there's ever an opening to ask about the much bandied about (go ahead and Google it, you'll see) rumor that West and Gorshin showed up at the same orgy--this is the 1960s when love was free and and I was goddammit three--and to relieve the tension, started doing dances as Batman and the Riddler. Got themselves kicked out for not feeling the right liberated vibe. Supposedly.
So, did Gorshin explore every little nuance of the famed West tool belt? The world may never know.
