It’s hard to picture a foursome other than Jeff Daniels, James Gandolfini, Marcia Gay Harden, and Hope Davis as the squabbling parents in the Tony-winning God of Carnage . But we couldn’t expect them to stick around forever. Starting tonight, a new cast — Jimmy Smits, Ken Stott, Annie Potts, and Christine Lahti — will duke it on the stage of the Bernard B. Jacobs Theater. Lahti...
If you want to meet with the mayor about, say, a large garage for sanitation trucks that's being built in your neighborhood, it apparently helps to have a celebrity emissary. "We couldn't get an entree into the mayor's office until [James] Gandolfini got involved, and suddenly the door was open," Richard Barrett, a painter and a community leader, told the Times this morning. But even a West...
Los Angeles: Agency nabs Binoche, Gandolfini and Bertino -- In recent weeks, CAA has made several client signings that include Oscar-winning French actress Juliette Binoche, "Sopranos" star James Gandolfini, and "The Strangers" writer-director Bryan Bertino.
After extending their stay at "God of Carnage," the starry cast led by James Gandolfini says goodbye to Broadway tomorrow night. But to keep the ball rolling and the cash register ringing, the show must go on with a new cast.
How much did I love this movie? I was hoping that I would like the movie, because I, like many adults, have a nostalgia for the original book. And when I first heard it was being made into a movie I experienced, as we often do when some original source material we love is promised to be given the cinematic treatment, that uneasy emotional vertigo that oscillates between "this is exciting!' and...
Less than a week after the Phillies lost to the Yankees in the 2009 World Series, Cole Hamels was back in New York City with his buddies James Gandolfini and and Ice-T for the WORLD GLOBAL DEBUT of the new Call of Duty game, Modern Warfare 2. While he was there, he decided to [...]
James Gandolfini interviews 10 soldiers who survived severe injuries while serving in Iraq. What a fine, beautiful, strong person this soldier is. I have wept several times today. I cannot comment now. Thanks to Elizabeth Kaeton for pointing me to this video and for her comments and the prayers she shares. --the BB
Come on James Gandolfini, you ain’t on “The Sopranos” anymore. It’s being reported Gandolfini beat up a photographer in New York. Sure, these paparazzi guys can get on your nerves, but beating them up doesn’t really help. Especially because they usually turn around and sue. Gandolfini went off on this photographer who was shooting him [...]
Just because a film is a remake – or perhaps a movie based on a book that was already made into a movie – doesn't mean the film is destined to fail. To be less cryptic, The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009), directed by Tony Scott may not be a brilliant film (or terribly original), but it is a pretty exciting way to spend two hours. Featuring a star-packed cast led by Denzel Washington and...
Dir: Armando Iannucci Cast: Tom Hollander, Peter Capaldi, Gina McKee, James Gandolfini, Chris Addison, Paul HigginsUK , 2009 Seen: August 28, 2009 at the Cumberland Reason to see: Trailer looked hilarious It's no secret that comedies aren't the films I run out to see. I find it usually them a combination of being offensive, boring and obvious. But if you make it a British comedy that is actually a...
Raining and four degrees this morning, and looking like we are due for some fog as well. I don't mind the weather being cold but cold and damp is the sort of combination that sneaks into your bones and hunkers down for the long run. Good news this morning was the return of my first T175 TMA - it was graded at 92% with some very positive comments. The marks that I dropped were for not giving sufficient...
There is an f-bomb in this video, so it’s NSFW. James Gandolfini is one of those guys that – while I’m sure he can and generally is a very nice man – I’d definitely avoid should I run into him in real life. The line between television and reality is very blurry for a lot of those “Sopranos” actors, and many of them have rumored mob ties. And because I didn’t...

Tom Cruise allegedly threatened to "beat the living [bleep]" out of any disobedient Scientologists, and while a hotheaded Cruise wouldn't surprise us, this is according to a former high-ranking Scientologist official who likely has a bone to pick with the Church. Following Rihanna's Good Morning America commentary, Chris Brown asserts that "all of the details should remain a private...
