Why did I watch it?
- A movie based on one of my favorite novels by one of my favorite authors and featuring arguably the most attractive woman in the world. Couldn’t wait.
- Bruce Robinson came out of hiding to direct it, and I consider Withnail And I to be unimpeachable.
Random IMDB Trivia:
- The final black and white still shot (also the cover photo of the book) at the very end of the movie is not in Puerto Rico (where the movie takes place) but in Aruba. The author is shown sitting on a bench at the Aruba Palm Beach Club (with a bottle of Amstel beer). In the background is the Aruba Caribbean Hotel, the first resort hotel to be constructed on Palm Beach. The author visited Aruba while living in Puerto Rico.
Netflix Rating: 4 out of 5
1 Thing I Liked About It: The club scene with Amber Heard. Great old surfer music, great dancing.
1 Thing I Didn’t Like About It: The moral message seemed a bit murky. Some departures from the book. Aaron Eckhart’s character was thin.
Dan Stevens just don’t miss!!
He doesn’t miss style wise either.
What did miss ? This horrid new interface that wouldn’t let me add him playing the banjo in LEGION to my previous Dan Stevens post.
Dan, of course, is promoting GASLIT in which he replaced Armie Hammer as John Dean in the limited series about President Richard Nixon’s Watergate scandal. I’m trying to be all love and light as I really enjoy Stevens, but it grinds my gears of what could have been.
This past weekend was Deadline’s Contenders - two full days of panels comprised of 47 series and 1 movie (THE SURVIVOR starring Ben Foster, directed by Barry Levinson). One of the panels was for Paramount’s THE OFFER about the making of THE GODFATHER starring Matthew Goode, Giovanni Ribisi, Juno Temple and Miles Teller who replaced Armie Hammer as Al Ruddy.
Its presence was very fitting as The Contenders was held on the Paramount lot and the gate leading to the theater is on Francis Ford Coppola Avenue.
*On panel: Teller, Ribisi and series’ creator Nikki Toscano (HUNTERS, 24: Legacy).
*Armie’s father looks more like Al Ruddy than either Teller or Armie.
The one thing the TED LASSO cast is going to do is celebrate each other.
The TED LASSO family is growing with news of new series 3 recurring character of charming venture capitalist Jack played by Jodi Balfour (Apple’s FOR ALL MANKIND)
TED LASSO fans have been clamoring for LGBTQIA representation on the show and hope that if it is indeed its final season that there would be a queer character. While many are hoping it’s Billy Harris’ Colin, what if it turns out to be Balfour who is dating BROAD CITY’s Abbie Jacobson? I would like it to be bar hooligan Baz played by Adam Colborne (pictured with his partner).
Of course Seth MacFarlane‘s version of the west would hold now punches. If you need proof, just check out the new Red-Band Trailer for his upcoming A Million Ways To Die In The West. It is all the way ridiculous and all the way Red-Bandy.
I actually laughed out loud a couple of times. Trailers like this always leave me asking, if this what they put it in the trailer, what have we not seen yet?
Check it out below followed by a pretty funny poster below.
A Million Ways To Die In The opens May 30th.
