I was watching Hello Dolly and it made me start to think of a Maltese Falcon au version of it. That plan fell through after about a second of thought, mostly cause there's just not enough characters in TMF, but I wanted to draw something for it anyways

I'm very pleased with Joels outfit here

#i should work on more peter lorre film fancasts and AUs for his films based on other media #its a lot of fun but im not very good at it #boy! i could not make spade look good here and ive never been amazing at drawing him to begin with #but doesnt joel look swell?#i need excuses to draw him specifically in more fun outfits #the maltese falcon #joel cairo #sam spade #hello dolly #my art #i hope i can find a way to make this au work #but so far i cant think of how to do it without finding another property to cross it over with #or awkwardly fusing HD roles together to give to different tmf characters #so far other than these too #im quite fond of brigid having irene molloys role #in this hypothetical au shed get on a bit better with joel than she canonically does in tmf #but theyd be a lot snippier with eachother than dolly and irene #at least in the 60s film #effie ofc would be cornelius hackle but more dignified and saphic #and im imagining iva archer and wilmo as minnie and barnaby respectively #the real head scratcher is who would be irma and her tall artist bf whos name i dont remember #i vaguely considered making it a aaol crossover aswell and making elaine spades neice or younger cousin or something #dolly/joels dead ex would probably be thursby or maybe gutman?#im more comfortable portraying gutman as a sympathetic character cause i just prefer to imagine thursby as a complete bastard #but i like the idea of gutman being the fancy restaurant owner in this version #no clue whod be the pig float/fake heiress in this version #if i did make it an aaol crossover maybe herman? but im not very satisfied with that one at all #also in this version maybe dolly is a nickname or something. cause 'Hello Joel' doesnt have as nice of a ring to it #that just makes me think of the crazy flanders grandma from the simpsons episode about when lisa was born #ik shes saying 'HELLO JOE' not 'Joel' but you can hear it right?
