One of the most important films ever made & necessary viewing for anyone who has ever had to earn a God’s honest dollar while working in unGodly & intolerable working conditions.

This one’s for Crystal Lee Sutton, the real brave individual who fought the good fight for the workers who keep this world running. Take care of the workers!

The Wizard (1989)

Este es uno de esos casos en que una película, que en su momento recibió sonoras críticas, termina convirtiéndose en objeto de culto. Para muchos, es una publicidad de hora y media de las bondades de la célebre empresa de videojuegos Nintendo y del parque Universal Studios.

La anécdota nos lleva a conocer a Jimmy Woods (Luke Edwards), un chiquito que suele escabullirse del ojo adulto para huir hacia California por alguna extraña razón. Esta actitud tan incomprensible lleva a su familia a decidir internarlo en un instituto psiquiátrico infantil. Los padres de Jimmy se han divorciado y sostienen una tensa relación entre ellos. Su hermanito Corey (Fred Savage) va a visitarlo de manera sorpresiva y acaba acompañándolo en su travesía. Por el camino se encuentra con una chica llamada Haley Brooks (Jenny Lewis) y la oportunidad de ganarse 50.000 dólares en un concurso de videojuegos en Las Vegas, confiando en las aptitudes innatas de Jimmy para este tipo de menesteres virtuales.

Claro que, cuando sus ausencias son advertidas, el padre (Beau Bridges) y hermano (Christian Slater) de ambos deciden ir tras su búsqueda; también, aunque por motivos menos amorosos (su trabajo reside en buscar niños perdidos y recibir una paga por ello), los acecha el impiadoso Putnam (Will Seltzer).

Un elemento esencial en el mito de la película (dirigida por Todd Holland), pero no tan importante en la historia, es el Power Glove, el cual verás en las últimas fotos. Se trata de un accesorio de la Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Un guante que, conectado a la consola, permitía activar los movimientos en el juego sólo con la mano.

What fun and gorgeousness! Time flew with two-time Emmy-nominated actress, Lee Purcell, and, world’s collided all over the place. It is a small world, after all.

From her runway days at three (I know!), Native American ancestry, multi-generational military mantle, to dancing, singing, regional TVing’, Lee went on to best 500 hopefuls, handpicked by Steve McQueen hisself (who mentored Lee in all things life, career & fitness––sweet surprise story there), to co-star with Kirk’s son, fairly green, Michael Douglas. Lee later co-starred with Kirk, and they’re not her only father/son dynasty co-stars. Not a bad place to start. Follow that teaming with Orson Welles, earning an Emmy nomination alongside Mark Harmon, and then another co-starring with Beau Bridges, and father Lloyd. In fact, Lee had lots of Bridges. Hysterical. Old friends with Jeff and his later girlfriend, Candy Clark, well, there are stories then and now, there, too. There’s Malcolm McDowell, Chadwick Bostwick, Jon Voight, a brand spanking new, Nicolas Cage, in Valley Girl (his first feature film), and that’s barely scratching the Lee Hollywood leading men, surface. The most guest-starring roles on Murder She Wrote, and loads of other TV appearances, cross-genres.

We talked fabulous friends, Donny Most, Anson Williams, Geri Jewell, Roslyn Kind, Joey Travolta, and his important inclusion film, Carol of the Bells, and the wondrous Donna Pescow––how we connected, and how those soul sisters found each other and just knew.

What a delightful, easy, breezy sit down with this stunning, age-defying beauty, who managed to manifest her dreams and continues to do so. Looking forward to her upcoming, Chocolate Is Not Better Than Sex. You’re telling me.

🥋 SIDEKICKS 🥋 🎥Barry (Jonathan Brandis) is in anxiety ridden and asthmatic highschooler who daydreams to the point of almost a vivid hallucination about being Chuck Norris‘s sidekick, as an escape From the school bully who torments him on a daily basis, the drill instructor/school gym teacher (Richard Moll), and the self-centered and over egotistical karate teacher (Joe Piscopo). Seeing potential in daydreaming Barry, his teacher Mrs Chen (Julie Nickson) sets up a meeting with her eccentric uncle Mr. Lee (Mako Iwamatsu) who decides to teach Barry the ways of karate to help him find better focus and to protect himself.🎥 Not exactly a critically acclaimed movie, but honestly , to hell with critics. This was a overall decent performance by the late Jonathan Brandis, and A fun and memorable early 90s teen/action flick. and of course, what kid that loved watching action films, didn’t dream of joining Chuck Norris on a mission, or standing side-by-side with him in a fight? 6.25/10 Rounding out the rest of the cast….

Review : One Night in Miami (2020)

In terms of modern day actresses, the career and impact of Regina King is one that cannot be ignored. From her early connection to John Singleton and her debut in Boyz n the Hood, to her numerous award nominations and wins for work up to and including the recent HBO series Watchmen, King has not only impressed on screens, but made sure to bring a sense of dignity, respect and hope to African-American actors and actresses on all levels. It would make sense that, after a career of television and music video directorial jobs, her feature film directorial debut would further cement her intentions for her creative energies. These intentions to educate, inspire and entertain all come through loud and clear in the stellar One Night in Miami.

As 1963 came to a close, four important figures in the African-American community find themselves at individually unique but ideologically similar crossroads : Cassius Clay (Eli Goree) nearly lets his ego and pride cost him a match against Henry Cooper (Sean Monaghan) at Wembley Stadium; Sam Cooke (Leslie Odom Jr.) receives a less than lukewarm reception at the legendary Copacabana based purely on the color of his skin; Jim Brown (Aldis Hodge) returns to his Georgia home to meet longtime friend and mentor Mr. Carlton (Beau Bridges) only to find that even he is capable of direct racism; and Malcolm X (Kingsley Ben-Adir) is facing an uncertain and dangerous truth in light of his decision to separate from the Nation of Islam and the Honorable Elijah Muhammad (Jerome A. Wilson). Despite these (or perhaps due to) these hardships, the four men meet at the Hampton House Hotel in Miami after Clay defeats Sonny Liston (Aaron D. Alexander) to discuss their futures, including Cassius Clay’s decision to convert to the Muslim religion and change his name to Muhammad Ali. Malcolm X attempts to charge Jim Brown and Sam Cooke with a mission to join the cause, bringing up sore points between the four men as they all take a long and hard look at their respective futures.

Much like Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, One Night in Miami retains the power of its stage presentation while not feeling restrained to a singular location, despite the vast majority of the film’s events taking place in Malcolm X’s hotel room. The dramatic tension found in each character’s history, as well as their many combinations of energy while occupying the same space, spills outside of the so-called restraints of the stage-to-screen format. Portraying four individuals of this stature in a film is a large enough task to undertake, but being able to display their range of emotional and intellectual depth, not to mention the vastness of their personal convictions, and all within the confines of a single event, is quite the achievement, especially for a first time director.

One thing that Regina King does well with this film is choosing to present a lack of harmony among the towering figureheads of the African-American community involved in the story. It would be very easy to take this little-known moment in history and present it as all hand-holding and skipping towards a brighter future, but in reality, the stakes each man faced prior to the meeting would have made it impossible to be anything less than a stormy meeting. Malcolm X was already feeling the pressure of separating from the Nation of Islam, and had very real reasons to fear for his life... Cassius Clay had just joined the Nation, further polarizing the divide between his supporters and detractors by changing his name to Muhammad Ali (with his eventual betrayal of Malcolm X probably completely unformed at the time)... Jim Brown and Sam Cooke were both considered household names, and yet they faced direct bigotry, prejudice and racism just like any other African-American man or woman in the 1960s.

The look of the film is relatively straightforward, but based on the scale and stature of the story being told, the film does not call for visual flash or flourish. Diegetic soundtrack is sparse as well, but with Sam Cooke as one of your featured characters, you don’t need much in terms of external tunage, and when songs are used in this manner, they are used to illustrate or reinforce points being made. King does a great job of capturing the look and feel of the 1960s, particularly in terms of the varying levels of casual, business and formal wardrobe the cast adorns. It could have been very easy to demonize the Nation of Islam within the realm of this story, especially considering the section of Malcolm X’s life the film covers, but respect is given to the Nation of Islam, the Fruit of Islam and Malcolm X in particular, with all parties given a level playing field of representation.

Casting four leads to play legends requires a delicate balance of talents, but the combination of Kingsley Ben-Adir, Eli Goree, Aldis Hodge and Leslie Odom Jr. as Malcolm, Ali, Brown and Cooke (respectively) brings a tangle of personal convictions, deep beliefs and rising aspirations that the group tosses back and forth amongst one another like a hot potato of emotion and passion. Lance Reddick and Christian Magby provide an air of dignity and humor to help ease some of the edge and tension the main four bring to the table. Michael Imperioli and Lawrence Gilliard Jr. help bring texture to the world of Ali’s boxing career as the legendary Angelo Dundee and Drew Bundini Brown, while Joaquina Kalukango and Nicolette Robinson help fill out the lives of the Malcolm X and Sam Cooke characters. Appearances by Beau Bridges, Emily Bridges, Jeremy Pope, Christopher Gorham, Jerome A. Wilson and more help fill out the film’s world.

For a film that arrived without much fanfare, and one that doesn’t beat its own chest in terms of star power or importance, One Night in Miami serves as a small but key slice of the much bigger picture that was the struggle for Civil Rights. Many films of this nature focus on more well known historical moments, and do so with much bigger pomp and circumstance, but a film that this that cuts right to the truth of the matter is one that will almost certainly stand the test of time and be cherished for years to come.
