carlgilliard: "Guess who’s appearing on this week’s episode of @shameless ? None other than YOURS TRULY! So much fun with @cameronmonaghan, @noelfisher and the great @gina_hecht 🌹 (my Wifey in the episode). STORY BEHIND THIS GIG. Scene had TWO LINES. One was in HEBREW. I looked at the sides, emailed my agent to pass on this opportunity. That HEBREW appeared a bit tough. My agent pushed me back by recording and emailing the phonetic pronunciation. (She’s Jewish) I prepared the audition and did my best, but felt I jacked up a couple of the words. To my surprise, I booked the job. I AM GLAD I LISTENED TO MY AGENT!! Learned the HEBREW DIALOGUE and was proud of myself. Shoot day came. Great day. Great people. Show aired today. The HEBREW LINE WAS CUT!!! 😂😂😂🤷🏾‍♂️😱. That’s my SHAMELESS story. I love this business. #Blessed #Shameless #HebrewFluent🙏🏿. #HilariousScene"

Al Pacino in Scarface (Brian De Palma, 1983)

Cast: Al Pacino, Steven Bauer, Michelle Pfeiffer, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Robert Loggia, Miriam Colon, F. Murray Abraham, Paul Shenar, Harris Yulin. Screenplay: Oliver Stone, based on a screenplay by Ben Hecht, Seton I. Miller, John Lee Mahin, W.R. Burnett adapted from a novel by Armitage Trail. Cinematography: John A. Alonzo. Art direction: Edward Richardson. Film editing: Gerald B. Greenberg, David Ray. Music: Giorgio Moroder.

Brian De Palma's Scarface ends with a dedication of the film to Howard Hawks and Ben Hecht, the director and the author of the story for the 1932 Scarface. As well it might, for De Palma's film and Oliver Stone's screenplay follow the outlined action and many of the characters of the earlier film far more closely than many remakes do. Most of the major characters have counterparts in the 1932 film: the Italian Tony Camonte becomes the Cuban Tony Montana; the first Tony's best friend, Guino Rinaldo, becomes Manny Ribera; Tony's sister, Cesca, becomes Gina; his boss Johnny Lovo's mistress, Poppy, becomes Tony Montana's boss Frank Lopez's mistress, Elvira. Both Mama Camonte and Mama Montana are sternly disapproving presences, and the appropriate characters are bumped off in more or less the same sequence and circumstances as in the earlier film. Because of the relaxation of censorship, there's a little heightening of some subtext from the first film: Gina (Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio) taunts Tony Montana (Al Pacino) with having incestuous feelings for her more explicitly than Cesca ever dares with Tony Camonte. And although the earlier film was thought to be excessively violent, the remake goes boldly where it didn't dare, starting with a chainsaw murder and ending with a veritable orgy of gunfire, including that of Tony's "little friend," a grenade launcher. The violence of De Palma's film first earned it an X rating, which was bargained down to an R after some suggested cuts -- although De Palma has claimed that he actually released the film without the cuts, and no one noticed. The remake's violence also turned off many of the critics, although it received a strong thumbs up from Roger Ebert. Since then, of course, the movie has become a cult classic, and more people have seen the remake than have ever seen the original. Which is a shame, because the original, despite some occasional slack pacing and the inevitable antique feeling that lingers in even pre-Production Code movies, is a genuine classic, while De Palma's version feels like a rather studied attempt to go over the top. Screenwriter Stone was never noted for subtlety, and while Al Pacino is one of the great movie actors, De Palma lets him venture into self-caricature, especially with what might be called his Cubanoid accent. On the other hand, Steven Bauer -- who was born in Cuba and sounds nothing like Pacino's Tony -- is a more appealing sidekick than George Raft was, and Michelle Pfeiffer, in one of her first major film roles, makes a good deal more of Elvira than Karen Morley did of Poppy, even though Pfeiffer is asked to do little more than look beautifully sullen and bored throughout the film. Scarface is at best a trash classic, a movie whose impact is stronger than one wants it to be.

Reviewing Star Trek TNG - S3E14 "A Matter of Perspective"

This screenshot is an absolute trip.

THE PREMISE

The Enterprise drops off Riker and Geordi at the Botanica IV space station to check on the progress of Dr Nel Apgar (Mark Margolis), who has been researching Krieger waves as a potential power source. When the Enterprise returns the next day, the station explodes moments after Riker beamed back from his meeting with Apgar.

Tanugan investigator Krag (Craig Richard Nelson) comes aboard to accuse Riker of murder, since under Tanugan law he is guilty until proven innocent, and demands that he be turned over. Picard requests that they hold a trial to determine Riker's innocence.

MY REVIEW

Before we begin, I have to highlight the cold open where Data innocently talks shit about Picard's painting. I love it. Definitely the highlight of the episode.

Okay, back to the actual plot.

Here we have the first of many episodes where a main character is accused of some heinous crime and has to prove their innocence. Or as I like to call them, a slow day in the writers' room. Get used to these. You're going to be seeing a lot of them going forward.

Personally, I'm not a fan of these episodes because we always know that the accused is innocent, so there's no tension or intrigue.

Fortunately this at least has an interesting twist on it, taking advantage of the futuristic setting to have each witness's version of events play out in the holodeck.

First, we get Riker's version of events. This doesn't do the lack of tension any favours, since we know he's innocent, but okay.

I'd give you an image, but I used it for the header. In his version, Riker is neutral and business-like, Apgar is irritated by Starfleet's interruption but tries to be polite, and Apgar's wife Manua (Gina Hecht) can hardly keep her eyes off Riker, and insists that he and Geordi stay on the station despite having arranged accommodation on the planet.

Over in Riker's guest quarters, Manua essentially comes on to him, despite his insistence that she leave. Apgar enters, catches the two of them in an... awkward position, puts two and two together and tells Riker that he'll make a formal complaint to Starfleet. Though Riker notes that this last part never happened and he didn't see Apgar until the next morning.

Speaking of which, Riker's account ends with him leaving on amicable terms. Krag calls bullshit, claiming that Riker fired a phaser since the lab's ground computers detected a large energy pulse at his exact position right as the transporter was activated. Krag runs his own hypothesis, which shows Riker firing on Apgar as he was beaming out.

We then get Manua as the first witness, with much more modest clothing and demeanour than in Riker's account. Her account from before the Enterprise's arrival shows Apgar anxious over how Starfleet will respond to his lack of progress. Riker arrives, acting much more like his usual self, as well as blatantly checking her out. That night, he acts much more... predatory than usual, causing Riker (by which I mean the real Riker) to interrupt in protest, even attacking and threatening Apgar when he catches them.

Despite the foregone conclusion of Riker's innocence, it is entertaining to see Jonathan Frakes acting against type for a change.

Plus Riker gets so appalled at this attempted slander that he gives us yet another meme template.

I hope you're keeping track of these. There'll be questions later.

I'm joking.

Or am I?

Anyway, Picard calls a recess, with the evidence stacked against Riker and Troi claiming that they're somehow both telling the truth.

"We can't both be telling the truth."

"It is the truth… as you each remember it."

"But her version puts a noose around my neck."

Later comes the third witness: Tayna, Apgar's assistant, who describes what Apgar told her of the incident. Even though her account is essentially hearsay, Krag allows it since Apgar is dead.

Tayna's account is a happy medium of the two versions. Long story short, Apgar catches Riker and Manua making out, Apgar hits him and says he'll complain, and Riker threatens him. Later, Apgar tells Tayna to take his wife down to the planet and that he'll deal with Riker and continue his research. And we all know (more or less) how that went.

Now, throughout this whole thing there's been a subplot where the technical team (Geordi, Data and Wesley) have been checking for evidence of Riker's innocence. There have also been two radiation attacks which melted away part of the hull. Analysis has found that there's been the exact same time intervals between them and that they're precisely in time with the Krieger wave generator on the planet's surface. With this knowledge, Picard has determined the cause of both the radiation bursts and the explosion, as well as who killed Dr Apgar.

Picard reconvenes everyone back on the holodeck, claiming that despite all the testimonies they've yet to see what really happened.

Okay, a whole lot of shit happens in this last big explanation, so I'll do my best to keep it brief by just explaining the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

inhales

Tayna's version of events is correct.

Apgar had already finished the wave generator and was lying about his lack of progress, since he was more interested in the potential financial gain which the Federation couldn't offer.

The holodeck simulation of the wave generator (which is apparently also fully functional somehow) has been focusing the energy from the generator on the planet, damaging the ship.

Apgar had attempted to kill Riker by aiming the wave generator at him, but the energy beam bounced off his transporter field and hit the converter, destroying the station.

With the new evidence presented, Krag agrees with the conclusion that Agpar accidentally killed himself while trying to kill Riker, and offers his apologies. Yay!

A bit messy to be sure, but it all worked out in the end. The writing could've been punched up in some places, maybe by giving Tayna and Manua different motivations for testifying, like if Agpar and Tayna were having an affair or something and Tayna wanted to cover it up. Just a thought.

6/10 - I've seen worse.

Night Shift - Say Hello to Michael Keaton, he’ll be around for a while, unfortunately

Oh boy, amateurs involved in prostitution was just a comic gold mine in the early eighties, to judge from the popularity of movies like 'Risky Business' or 'Doctor Detroit', and especially this early Ron Howard directorial effort "Night Shift". This was Michael Keaton's big breakout film, but unfortunately did little to help Henry Winkler finally put 'The Fonz' behind him.

The boys play a couple of morgue attendants who decide to open up a prostitution ring from their unusual surroundings. Pretty stupid movie overall, and needs a lot of help from over the top mugging from both actors to help sell the dismal comic situation. Not to worry though, this was a huge hit, and passed for 'comic gold' the summer it came out. I probably ended up seeing it on video after a lot of enthusiastic praise from my new boss.

Hi! This looks neat and I’m considering applying, but I’m kind of curious about why you’re not requiring a Jewish FC for Puck, or half-Jewish FCs for his children? Even if you’re going based on the actors ethnicities, Dianna is Jewish too. Thanks for the info, I’m just curious.

Of course! I went back and forth with this a lot before the start of the rp (which I did with all of the families) because it is a very complicated case. Mark wasn’t Jewish, his character was, Dianna is Jewish, her character wasn’t. Basically what I did was base everything off of who played Puck’s parents and Dianna’s ethnicity as well as creative liberties granted my previous sentence. I’m gonna try and break this up into little sections to try and explain my logic and ultimately, if my logic is flawed and this is an incorrect take to have, I have no issue with changing FC’s around! Also, putting this under a read more because it got much longer than I had anticipated!

Firstly, Puck! To be quite honest, Mark is not a factor in this at all, he doesn’t deserve to have anything respected in my opinion. Puck is Jewish-coded as he talks about his faith, says he’s Jewish, and so forth. Gina Hecht, who plays Puck’s mom, is Ashkenazi Jewish while Thomas Calabro, who plays Puck’s dad, is fully white according to the Internet. So, to me, in my Puckerman lore that I had to make up, Puck is half-Jewish ethnically and his dad probably just converted in marriage. Reflecting, I think I should have used a half-Jewish FC for Puck and that is completely my own mistake and something I plan on fixing! At the start of the rp, I simply just picked someone in their 40s that fit Puck’s vibe and not much farther thought went into that since this initially just started as a personal project for me.

Now onto Quinn! Dianna’s dad’s family is Jewish while her mom’s isn’t and her mom married into the faith. There’s also a lot to argue in terms of is she half-Jewish or if her lineage is so far down that she’s only about a quarter or less, but for all intensive purposes I’m going to say half since Dianna has stated this herself. For Quinn’s character, it seems highly unlikely that she is Jewish at all. Quinn comes from an upper middle class Christian family, she called Rachel names that could be classified as anti-semantic (including caricature doodles of her), and I’m pretty sure her dad made a comment about ethnic candidates in politics. Basically, I can’t imagine a world in which a Jewish girl makes comments like that to a Jewish girl, especially when it’s stated explicitly that Quinn’s from a privileged Christian family. So, in that case, Quinn isn’t Jewish in any capacity aside from the actress.

Ultimately, with all this in mind, I had to figure the best way to make all areas of this work without having to essentially rewrite canon characters because someone in the Glee casting room in 2009 didn’t take any of this into consideration. I decided that a Jewish FC wasn’t necessarily needed for this family and I think a lot of my final decision goes back to what I’ve seen in Glee rps and emulating that and I’ve never seen anyone ever, use Jewish FC’s to play Quinn’s siblings or Puckerman children and I don’t even see many Jewish Puck’s (probably linked back to Mark’s own ethnicity) so I just don’t ask for it as a requirement. People are welcome to use Jewish FC’s for the Puckerman families and if it’s a wish that a lot of people want, I have no probably changing FC’s around earlier like I said! I hope this makes sense, I know I rambled a lot, but I just wanted it to be known that I didn’t make the decision on a whim and thought did get put into it!

Maybe next time double check your facts, that is Jake's mother, not Noah's. Noah's mother is portrayed by Gina Hecht who is WHITE.

Yes... Well done. We’re talking about Jake. She white washed HIS side of the family. So his mother’s family who are POC. She also listed Sarah, Puck’s sister as Zendaya at one point. Think you’re the one that needs to fact check here anon
