...TELEVISION RECENTLY BOUGHT THE RIGHTS TO YOUR AUTOBIOGRAPHY. WHOM WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE PLAY YOU? Brad Pitt couldn't do it. He's not built like me. I like Steve Buscemi. He'd need a lot of makeup, but when he's onscreen you're always looking at him. I also like Paul Giamatti, who was in American Splendor...
...Coffee and Cigarettes. The movie’s basically a collection of shorts he’s made over the past decade and a half, where a bunch of random famous people sit around and chat. These people include the White Stripes, Roberto Benigni, Iggy Pop, Cate Blanchett, Steve Buscemi and, in a single conversation, RZA, GZA and Bill Murray. Will probably appeal to Waking Life fans or anyone whose wondering what the hell Wu Tang has to say to Carl Spackler...
...show's popcorn hook--and lacked focus. None have the Edward Albee gut wallop of last season's climax, but they are more consistent and action heavy. A bunch of mobsters arrested in the '80s get paroled ("The Class of '04," the media dub them), including Tony Blundetto (Steve Buscemi), who went to jail for a heist Tony Soprano was supposed to be on. Determined to go straight, "Tony B." is driving a linen-delivery truck while working to become a licensed massage therapist. It sounds like comic relief, and in a way it is, but Tony B., clinging...
When a TV show advertises itself as "magical" or "surreal," be afraid. Since David Lynch's Twin Peaks, the supposedly bizarre has evolved its own cliches. These were best satirized in the 1995 movie Living in Oblivion, in which Steve Buscemi plays a director who casts a dwarf in a dream sequence, only to have the little person mock him. "The only place I've seen dwarfs in dreams is in stupid movies like this!" the tiny actor says. "Oh, make it weird, put a dwarf...
...movie for the mind" inspired by Edgar Allan Poe. (Reed's girlfriend Laurie Anderson did a Moby Dick performance piece in 1999; maybe they're working their way through a 10th-grade syllabus?) Half the album is narration--from The Raven, Annabel Lee, etc.--performed by Willem Dafoe, Steve Buscemi and Amanda Plummer in their best Scooby-Doo villain voices. It is exactly as annoying as it sounds...
