This easily surpassed my expectations. Three splendid performances, perfectly pitched comic noir. And showcases Miami evilly.

yeah Miami Blues is great. are any of George Armitage's other movies besides Grosse Pointe Blank any good? His first writing credit was this hilarious-sounding Corman flick: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065760/?ref_=nm_flmg_wr_10

Excellent interview. GPB is as good as Miami Blues; I didn't know the script went thru so many cogs.

I saw AB at a screening of a George C Scott desert-isle incest movie from the '70s last night, rockin' a black polo shirt and a bag of popcorn.
He also interviewed GCS's son Campbell afterward, did some impressions of Scott and John Huston, and complained about film negotiations where, as opposed to 20 years ago, they won't spend an extra $750 G to shoot an LA story in LA. "Oh, no no, we won't get that. We'll shoot it in Louisville..."

ah right I'm not a terrible man for the podcasts myself so haven't heard it.
the seinfeld thing is good but it's an interview. he's personable and witty when he's with pals, and not with folk who have the temerity not to respect a pedestrian "holding" a parking space

Alec Baldwin fired a prop gun on a set in New Mexico on Thursday, accidentally killing cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza.

I suppose it was a subjective "shot" where the actor is pointing at the camera... and all the people behind it.

xp Well we can start with the fact that these are trump fans on twitter, well I guess no need to explain further than that.

the only previous cases of firearms deaths on movie sets the bbc correspondent could come up with was Brandon Lee and some 1915 silent western. I would guess there are probably strict H+S protocols in place that are why this doesn't happen very often.
― calzino, Friday, 22 October 2021 12:00 (two years ago) link
I just don't get it. If you're making a movie, with guns, with prop guns, with toy guns, whatever, there is literally no reason there should be live ammo anywhere near the set, let alone close to the blanks or pretend rounds. Maybe that's why this apparently has not happened much before?
― Josh in Chicago, Friday, 22 October 2021 12:07 (two years ago) link
read the yahoo article, it explains how blanks work

in fairness Stan (not blaming him just saying) didn't say what the predictable question was: it explains how prop guns are often real guns, what blanks are, and how this setup is still a hazard
― certified juice therapist (harbl), Friday, 22 October 2021 12:12 (two years ago) link
oh it seems blanks are quite dangerously unpredictable at close range.
