Chazz Palminteri: The Hollywood Interivew

Chazz Palminteri Goes to Bed Hungry
By Alex Simon
Chazz Palminteri’s life is one of those classic show biz stories that, dare we say it, is the stuff from which movies are made. Born and raised in the Bronx, Palminteri toiled for years as a struggling stage, film and television actor before finally being plucked from obscurity by Robert De Niro, who saw his off-Broadway autobiographical play A Bronx Tale, a one-man show in which Palminteri played a host of colorful characters he grew up and around in his Bronx neighborhood during the 1950s and ‘60s, where his life was shaped by two mentors: his straight-laced working class father and a local mobster named Sonny.
The movie version of A Bronx Tale was a hit with audiences and critics alike upon its premiere in 1993 and Palminteri hasn’t stopped working since. His latest turn, in Debbie Goodstein’s autobiographical film Mighty Fine, »

Revenge: the high-society whodunnit that is frighteningly addictive
25 May 2012 4:05 PM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
Wigs worthy of Joan Collins, a perceptive dog, and a comeback for Madeleine Stowe … We're hooked already. Here are 10 reasons to watch Revenge, which starts on E4 on Monday May 28 at 9pm
See a gallery of the characters here
It's a classic whodunnit
Revenge begins on a beach in the Hamptons, playground of New York's ultra-rich. Pop pop! A man is shot as a party sparkles in a mansion behind him. It's instantly gripping: "Who is he? Who shot him? And why?" Then it's distracting: "Just look at their fantastic skin, and those outfits, and their abdominals, and the interior decor, and the actual Van Gogh perched on an easel in what we're guessing they call the Champagne Brunch Room … "
It's a tale of hidden identity
Our heroine is Amanda Clarke (Emily VanCamp). When she was a girl, her daddy got framed by his powerful Hamptons mates and was killed in prison. »

Real-life mother and daughter Andie MacDowell and Rainey Qualley in Mighty Fine.
Andie MacDowell and Rainey Qualley Prove Mighty Fine
By Alex Simon
When you see the opening moments of Debbie Goodstein’s writing/directing debut Mighty Fine and catch your first glimpse of newcomer Rainey Qualley playing Andie MacDowell’s daughter, your first thoughts will most likely be “Wow! That’s great casting.” Truth be told, 23 year-old Qualley is, in real life, MacDowell’s daughter, the second of her three children.
Mighty Fine, which MacDowell co-produced, tells Goodstein’s autobiographical story of a Jewish family from Brooklyn who relocate to New Orleans in the early 1970s, led by their charismatic, but troubled father (Chazz Palminteri) who is always one step away from millionaire status or complete destitution. The family drama, released by Adopt Films, arrives in theaters May 25.

Mighty Fine Movie Review
25 May 2012 7:18 AM, PDT | ShockYa | See recent ShockYa news »
Title: Mighty Fine Director: Debbie Goodstein Starring: Chazz Palminteri, Andie MacDowell, Rainey Qualley, Jodelle Ferland A deadly dull melodrama of familial dysfunction and emotional abuse in the face of patriarchal anger management, writer-director Debbie Goodstein’s “Mighty Fine” leans heavily on autobiographical inspiration for dramatic heft and connection, a tactic that proves ill-advised. A somewhat drab and unimaginative telling further dents this offering of already rather limited psychological insights and pat conclusions and catharses. Set in the 1970s, “Mighty Fine” centers around a so-surnamed husband and father, small businessman Joe (Chazz Palminteri), who uproots his family and moves them from Brooklyn to New Orleans. His wife Stella (Andie MacDowell) is a [ Read More ] »

Operating both on screen and off, Oscar nominee Chazz Palminteri has carved out a career playing both to and against his perceived tough guy strengths. In his new film, writer-director Debbie Goodstein’s 1970s-set “Mighty Fine,” the 60-year-old actor plays charismatic, high-spirited family man Joe Fine, who relocates his wife Stella (Andie MacDowell) and two daughters (Jodelle Ferland and Rainey Qualley) from Brooklyn to New Orleans, in search of a better life. With his apparel business experiencing hard times, however, Joe’s depression and anger starts to manifest itself more and more in emotionally abusive outbursts. For ShockYa, Brent Simon had a chance to speak to Palminteri recently, about the movie, his [ Read More ] »

Kellan Lutz: Tarzan 3D Movie
4 May 2012 5:54 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Kellan Lutz (photo), best known for playing Emmett Cullen in the Twilight movies, and Resident Evil actress Spencer Locke, will star in the performance-capture 3D movie Tarzan, adapted from Edgar Rice Burroughs’ classic tale, and to be directed by Animals United’s producers / directors Reinhard Klooss and Holger Tappe. Needless to say, Lutz will bring Tarzan back to life, while Locke will play Jane. The screenplay was written by Klooss, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs‘ Yoni Brenner and Jessica Postigo, whose sole listed credit on the IMDb is Harald Zwart’s The Mortal Instruments, currently in pre-production. According to The Hollywood Reporter, it updates Burroughs’ story by having Tarzan’s parents killed in a plane crash, the CEO of Greystoke Energies as the film’s chief villain, and Jane as an environmentally conscious heroine. Come to think of it, the first "update" isn’t something really new: Boy’s »

Glenn Close: 'Attention should be paid'

Glenn Close's new film about a cross-dressing butler has been 30 years in the making. Here she explains why the story of Albert Nobbs means so much to her
There is no crackle on the line to Glenn Close. No echo or delay. No hiss or interference. "Yes! I can hear you! I can hear you fine!" She sounds almost alarmingly near, sat in her flat on Central Park West, New York. Not boomy, exactly, but big on crisp diction (it was she they called to dub Andie MacDowell's duff twangs on Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes). "It's a little bit of a chilly day here, but all the blossoms are out, all the trees are blooming. It's raining there? Oh dear."

Jane By Design DVD Review And Giveaway Plus Interview With Erica Dasher
29 March 2012 3:11 PM, PDT | AreYouScreening.com | See recent AreYouScreening news »
ABC Family has another hit on its hands, though it may be diving further and further toward ABC Family (Women), and Jane by Design has opted for the ultra-quick DVD release. Hitting just two weeks after the season finale, the DVD doesn’t offer bonus features, but gives you the chance to jump into the show, in case you didn’t get on board until after everyone was talking about it.
The show, though certainly mainly geared toward a certain age demographic, delivers solid writing, and layered characters. Like many of the shows currently airing on ABC Family, Jane by Design rises above the expectations it likely creates on paper.
16 year-old Jane thinks she’s applying to be an unpaid intern for a fashion powerhouse, but is mistakenly interviewed to be an executive assistant to one of the biggest names in the game, and at an impressive salary to boot. »

Mighty Fine: Film Review
21 March 2012 3:13 PM, PDT | The Hollywood Reporter | See recent The Hollywood Reporter news »
A rather clichéd coming-of-ager, writer-director Debbie Goodstein’s “semi-autobiographical” feature directorial debut Mighty Fine has heart to spare, but little new to say. Even with a planned counter-programming strategy, it stands a slim chance of carving out much of a niche from an anticipated Memorial Day weekend limited release. Photos: The Scene at Santa Barbara International Film Festival Set in the 70s, Mighty Fine follows Joe Fine (Chazz Palminteri), a Brooklyn garment manufacturer, as he moves his family to New Orleans, closer to the factory that produces his company’s clothing line. His wife Stella (Andie MacDowell),

ABC Family Announces Summer Premieres Plus Make It Or Break It Hitting Soon
19 March 2012 1:07 PM, PDT | AreYouScreening.com | See recent AreYouScreening news »
It’s probably both surprising and old news to long-time readers (because I write snooty reviews, and talk about ABC Family a fair amount), but I’m simply a huge fan of ABC Family. I can’t really say why, and it isn’t exactly that I’m the world’s biggest Pretty Little Liars fan (though I was Aria once), but there’s something about the network and the show’s it delivers that, fan of any particular title or no, makes me happy they exist.
Even shows like Melissa & Joey, which seem to shut me right out on paper, have won me over as not only some of the coolest shows on TV (given sufficient demographic caveats), but moreover as strong arguments that television isn’t just about rotting your brain (though who would think I would be on the wrong side of that argument?).
