Cine: Seis grados de separación (1993)

La noche promete ser de una importancia esencial para John Flanders, "Flan", Kittredge (Donald Sutherland) y su esposa Ouisa (Stockard Channing, nominada al Oscar a la Mejor Actriz): están frente a su amigo e inversor Geoffrey Miller (Sir Ian McKellen), con quien está a punto de cerrar la venta de una pintura de Paul Cézanne. El negocio es millonario, pero les cae la inesperada visita de un muchacho que afirma haber sido asaltado. Éste se hace llamar Paul (Will Smith, que entonces estaba saboreando las mieles del éxito como rapero y como protagonista de la sitcom "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air") y, además, los sorprende confirmándoles que es compañero de la universidad de sus hijos y que es hijo del gran actor Sidney Poitier. Su carisma es indudable y no tarda en sorprenderlos con su profusa cultura literaria, sus dotes culinarios y anécdotas variadas sobre su presunto padre.

Conmovidos por tan extraordinaria personalidad, la pareja, luego de sanar su herida, le permite pasar la noche en su casa y le da cincuenta dólares. A la mañana siguiente, le encuentran en la cama con un prostituto (Lou Milione) y, en medio de un gran escándalo, echan a ambos del departamento noyorquino. Hablando con amigos, descubren que el modus operandi del muchacho es similar y emprenden la tarea de buscar a tan extraño, aunque encantador, personaje, para intentar evitar que continúe con su desquiciada cruzada.

La historia es increíble, pero real: su inspiración es David Hampton, un adolescente que estafó a estrellas de la magnitud de Melanie Griffith, Calvin Klein o Gary Sinise haciéndose pasar por David Poitier, hijo de, claro, Sidney Poitier. Hampton recibió una condena que iba de los dieciocho meses a los cuatro años de prisión y murió en 2003 por complicaciones del sida. Luego llegaría la pieza teatral, escrita (al igual que el guión de esta película) por John Guare. La dirección recayó en el australiano Fred Schepisi, quén se valió de talentos actorales como Mary Beth Hurt, Heather Graham, Bruce Davison, Richard Masur, Eric Thal, Kelly Bishop, Anthony Rapp, J. J. Abrams (sí, el director de "Star Wars, el despertar de la fuerza" y "Star Trek") y, en el rol de Trent Conway, el primer incauto qua cae ante los encantos de Paul, Anthony Michael Hall.

Macabre Month 7 Part VII: Untraceable (2008)

In today's review, I go online with my horror thrillers as I attempt a #positive review of the 2008 techno-thriller Untraceable #DianeLane #BillyBurke #ColinHanks #JosephCross #MaryBethHurt #PeterLewis #TyroneGiordano #PerlaHaneyJardine #TimDeZarn

When you think about it, the Internet really is a reflection of humanity as a whole, the digitised summation of practically every thought, every innovation, and every endeavour catalogued and ready to be experienced. There’s also a cloud to this silver lining; terrible things do lie underneath, as they lie underneath some people’s hearts. In 2008, the nightmares of the deep, dark web were made…

MOVIE QUOTE OF THE DAY:

“We go to movies and you say I look better than the movie stars. We go to the best restaurant in town and you say I'm a better cook than the chef. You have this exalted view of me and I hate it. If you think I'm that great, there must be something wrong with you.”

Mary Beth Hurt in Chilly Scenes of Winter (aka Head Over Heels)

📌 "Birden daha fazla yazamayacağımı fark ettim. Aslında ani olan bir şey değildi. Geçen kıştan beri bunu hissediyordum. Ölüme yoğunlaşan düşünceler bütün aklımı ele geçirmiş gibiydi. Ve bunlar... kendi ölümümle ilgili endişeler. Bu yüzden işimin boş olduğunu düşünmeye başladım. Yani neden bir şeyler yazmak için zahmete girecektim ki? Niçin? Hangi amaçla? Neye hizmet ederek? Demek istediğim, ben öldükten sonra şiirlerimden bazılarının okunmasını gerçekten umursuyor muyum? Bu gerçekten yerimi alabilecek bir şey mi?" 🎬 ➖ Interiors (1978) #interiors #woodyallen #dianekeaton #marybethhurt #kristingriffith #bavulumdafilmler https://www.instagram.com/p/CFejr_Og8dT/?igshid=5tb1xtoaqja2

"I was mugged out there in Central Park by the statue of that Alaskan husky. I was trying to figure out why there was a statue of a dog who saved lives in the Yukon in the middle of Central Park. When I was trying to puzzle it out, they took my money and my briefcase." #sixdegreesofseparation #marybethhurt @audra_lee

My Boyfriend's Back (1993)

In today's review, I find out that being dead, might give you a new lease, on your love life. As I attempt a #positive review of the 1993 zombie rom-com, My Boyfriend's Back #AndrewLowery #TraciLind #DannyZorn #EdwardHerrmann #MaryBethHurt #JayOSanders

Growing up is hard enough, we have a sea of constantly changing emotions, bodies, and situations to navigate, and it can feel like you are a whole new person. Almost like coming back from a near-death experience gives you a completely new outlook. In 1993. A film that combined the teenage condition with a lot of EC Comics-style spookiness, a film known as My Boyfriend’s Back. Johnny’s dead, but…
