Nictarion Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 I mostly know him from Breaking Bad and Oz, but he had quite a career when I actually started scrolling through his filmography. Deadlines?

Tywin et al. Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 I love how he's one of the many Jewish actors playing Latinos in Scarface. Watched Ave Ventura recently and got a kick seeing he was in it. And of course it goes without saying he was one of the best parts of BB.

TheLastWolf Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Any Arenofsky film would have him in a small but great performance. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But but but, there's loads of controversial because non Jewish actors were cast in oppenheimer. What are the fucking rules??? I get that it's slightly different when it's historical v fictional.

But in general I would say don't have a nearly all white cast play roles when making a movie that takes place in MENA (looking at you, Gods of Egypt, which was a terrible film anyways).

Nictarion Posted August 7, 2023 Author Share Posted August 7, 2023 He made a few true classics. I also really liked Killer Joe which I consider one of the films that helped kick off the ‘McConaissance’ Deadlines? What Deadlines? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Wow, he seemed like someone who would be around forever. He just finished directing his Caine Mutiny film not that long ago. Time to dust off Sorcerer and give it a rewatch. Amazing film, one among a number from Friedkin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadlines? What Deadlines? Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I’ve never seen Killer Joe but I’ve heard a lot of good things about it. Sorcerer is excellent. If it had come out a year or two earlier… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ormond Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Wrong Tom Jones. The Tom Jones who died was the one who wrote the lyrics for the musical The Fantasticks, which had the longest off-Broadway run in New York City ever. I know many young people will never have heard of it, but I think a great many of us old folks remember it. Even though I was only 13 at the time, I remember very well the Hallmark Hall of Fame television version of the musical broadcast in 1964. https://variety.com/2023/film/news/fantasticks-tom-jones-recalled-stage-musical-hollywood-adaptation-1235695218/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbunting Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Bob Barker, every snow day, every day I skipped school "sick", every day I skipped work "sick" I'd have to watch TPIR. Then he pops up in Happy Gilmore and I like him even more. I remember how weird it was to hear him swear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Yeah, a whole lot of people over a certain age watched a lot of The Price is Right when we were home sick from school. Plinko is the classic game, but as a kid I was always fond of Cliff Hangers with its yodeling and oblivious mountaineer approaching his doom: RIP, Bob. hauberk, Teng Ai Hui and dbunting 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
