    Why Did Marlon Brando Not Return For The Godfather: Part II?

    Francis Ford Coppola’s 1972 Best Picture winning masterpiece The Godfather is widely considered to be one of the greatest, if not THE greatest film of all time. The Italian American crime drama stars what today is considered an all star ensemble cast, including the likes of Al Pacino, Robert Duvall, James Caan and Talia Shire. Of course, many of the actors in the film who became A listers were up and coming at the time of the film’s release. The one actor who had by far and away the greatest cloud and the biggest A lister in the film was of course Marlon Brando, widely considered to be one of the greatest actors of all time and a pioneer of method acting. Brando won an Oscar for his portrayal as Don Corleone in The Godfather, but did not return for the sequel The Godfather: Part II. It may surprise you to learn that Brando was in fact supposed to be in the film, so why was he not?

    State of Grace (1990) | Movie Review

    Play Episode Listen Later Nov 16, 2020 8:14


    State of Grace is a 1990 American neo-noir crime film directed by Phil Joanou and starring Sean Penn, Ed Harris and Gary Oldman, also featuring Robin Wright, John Turturro, and John C. Reilly. Written by playwright Dennis McIntyre, the film was executive-produced by Ned Dowd, Randy Ostrow, and Ron Rotholz, with a musical score by Ennio Morricone. Although the film was not a box office success and its release overshadowed by that of the similarly-themed Goodfellas, it was received positively by most critics. Shot on location in New York City, the film was inspired by the real-life Hell's Kitchen gang the Westies. Coincidentally, Penn was strongly considered for the lead role of Henry Hill in Goodfellas before he starred in this film. A New York cop is recruited to return to his hometown and infiltrate the mob ran by his best friend's brother. Gone for a decade, Terry Noonan (Sean Penn) is welcomed back into the fold in his Irish-American neighborhood in New York City. A one-time street tough, Terry is now an undercover officer targeting crime boss Frankie Flannery (Ed Harris). In the name of duty, Terry rekindles his dormant friendship with Frankie's younger brother, Jackie (Gary Oldman). But as Terry gets closer to his goal, his feelings for the youngest Flannery, his old flame Kathleen (Robin Wright), complicate his mission.

    Did Tony die at the end of The Sopranos? | Explained

    It remains one of the most controversial and talked-about endings in the history of television. Some people loved it, others despised it, but the debate still remains, what happened to Tony Soprano at the end of The Sopranos? Did he or didn’t he die? In an episode directed by Sopranos creator himself David Chase, Tony sits with his family at a Holsten’s ice cream parlour for some onion rings and listens to Journey’s Don’t Stop Believing , his daughter Meadow struggles to park her car outside to join her family, and a mysterious character in a members only jacket passes Tony on his way to the bathroom. With each jungle of the restaurant door opening, Tony glances up to take a look at who’s walked in. We can’t quite work out why, but tension is building, something is about to happen. And then, the door opens, Tony looks up, and we cut to black, just as the words of the song reach “don’t stop”. It was a revolutionary ending, the kind not seen on the small screen, to such an extent it had people checking their TVs to make sure nothing had gone wrong. So what happened – did Tony simply see his daughter walk in and enjoy a family meal for the evening? Was he shot by the members only guy, with the sight of his daughter the very last thing he sees before he dies? The question as to whether Tony died or not at the end has been hotly debated for over 10 years, and surely the definitive answer can only come from the creator of the show David Chase?

    In Martin Scorsese's The Irishman, Frank Sheeran (Robert De Niro) is forced to kill his friend Jimmy Hoffa (Al Pacino) by mob boss Russell Bufalino (Joe Pesci). Hoffa was the president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. In this video, I explain Hoffa's rise as the president of the teamsters, and how he was sent to prison as a result of the testimony of Edward 'Ed' Grady Partin, a teamsters member who recorded evidence of Hoffa and his team performing illegal jury tampering. Helping me is Craig Vincent, the man who played Ed Partin in The Irishman.
