Scenes We Love: Goodfellas
Filed under: Fandom », Trailers and Clips », Scenes We Love »

So, in honor of Scorsese's new Frank Sinatra movie, here's the Goodfellas scene I'd most like to live in. I'm not sure what it says about my personal tastes and how I study film that I've never thought "Oh, all in one take! Amazing!" but "Now that's the kind of date I'd like to go on. Why can't I find a guy like that? And where can I find that dress?"
'Sopranos' Stars Go Into Mourning
Filed under: Comedy », Independent », Casting », Cinematical Indie »
You might remember a new film I posted about last year called Son of Mourning. The film was set to star Joseph Cross (Running with Scissors) as a young man who goes to Florida to process his parent's divorce. While there, he is mistaken for the Messiah, and has to decide what he wants with his new-found fame -- to help himself out, or to help the world. Just to make things more interesting, the world is in the midst of an international climate crisis. Tim Curry, Heather Graham, and Barbara Hershey had also signed on for roles.And now we're getting some female Sopranos in the mix, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Both Lorraine Bracco and Jamie-Lynn Sigler have signed on to the indie satire. Bracco will play Cross' soon-to-be-divorced mom, while Sigler will play his love interest. Originally, I'd imagined that Hershey and Curry will be the parents, but sadly, it looks like they might have left the project. (No!) The THR story only lists Graham, and the IMDb listing doesn't mention Barbara Hershey and says that Curry is only a rumored addition. If any of you Mourning crew are reading, give us the low-down!

Harvey Keitel is apparently just like the characters he plays in the movies - irrational and slightly unhinged. Keitel's ex-wife, Lorraine Bracco, just finished penning her autobiography entitled, On the Couch. The book details some of the Pulp Fiction star's crazier outbursts. For instance, he sent Lorraine's third husband, Edward James Olmos, a machete with a two-foot blade and got his nine year old daughter to tell Olmos, "Daddy said you'd know what to do with it because you're a Mexican." I didn't know machetes were exclusively Mexican. I think a clearer and more delicious message could have been sent via a two-foot burrito or a machete-shaped pinata. Fun for the whole extended family!
In a special Hollywood episode of Little People, Small World, Jeremy Piven and Stephen Dorff butted heads at the NYC hot-spot Bungalow 8. The boys were all hopped up on V.I.P. treatment and testosterone after attending a P.Diddy party and apparently were feeling quite combative. Dorff ticked Piven off by skipping ahead of him in the bathroom line and then mouthed off about being entitled to do what he wants! Then Piven said, "You're a has-been" to which Dorff retorted, "At least I am a movie star - you're only on TV! Cable TV!". Oh, snap! Security separated the twosome before they could further dissect each other's resumes. For the record, it's cooler to guest star on Father Dowling Mysteries than co-star on Ellen, and a toupee is never acceptable.
Canadian couple, Ryan Reynolds and Alanis Morissette have officially ended their two year engagement. If Reynolds wants to keep his relationship off the airwaves, he better steer clear of movie dates with forward women and doing anything ironic/not ironic at all.
