Podcast appearances and mentions of Billy Bathgate

Way back in episode 220, we spoke to American novelist and journalist Jared Feldschreiber about his excellent novella Reckless Abandon. One of the strengths of the story is how it weaves real life and fictional characters together in its tapestry. One of those real-life characters who crosses the pages is legendary actor Dustin Hoffman. It is well known that Dustin Hoffman is something of a perfectionist, always looking to attaining excellence in his work, and driving others to do the same. This has led to some critics calling him difficult to work with, yet his technique has produced incredible performances in such films as Rainman, The Graduate and Midnight Cowboy. It's also true that not everything he has done has been successful; that's what happens when you take risk. Some of those less successful films contain some incredible Dustin Hoffman performances that are sadly not as well known as that found in his more successful work. Recently we have been talking to Jared about this very topic and collectively thought it would be interesting to create a short series of shows to highlight some of those now forgotten films and the work Dustin created for them. Our aim is to bring these movies to your attention and perhaps encourage you to give them a second chance (or even a first chance if you haven't seen any of them before). First up and the subject of this show is Billy Bathgate. This is a 1991 feature based on the acclaimed book by E L Doctorow about the influence 30's gangster Dutch Schultz has over a young impressionable teenage in the Bronx during that tough decade. Sadly, the feature was a box office disappointment for Touchstone pictures on first release and has been overshadowed by other more acclaimed gangster films from the same period, such as Goodfellas and Bugsy. During our discussion about Billy Bathgate we will talk about: · The production problems · Was Dustin Hoffman miscast? · Is this Shakespearean in approach? · Bruce Willis's performance · The real Dutch Schultz · The positive qualities of the movie And more besides….. Have you seen Billy Bathgate? If so what did you think about the film – do you think it is worth revisiting? Please let us know. Until our next visit to Dustin Hoffman lost classics, we'll see you At The Flicks

From the eleventh month of 1991, we attempted once more to track down yet another hidden gem:Dutch Schultz (Dustin Hoffman) is at the end of his rope, perhaps literally! With a trial looming that may put him behind bars, Schultz will have to utilize his final Hail Mary: an overeager money runner (Loren Dean) who idolizes the mafia life. The young man will join Schultz and a suicidal ingenue (Nicole Kidman) in order to fake being a family. It's time to meet….Billy Bathgate!

What's Steve Buscemi up to in the 1991 star-studded gangster film bomb BILLY BATHGATE? Not much! Despite a big budget, an incredible cast (Dustin Hoffman, Nicole Kidman, Bruce Willis and.. uh.. Loren Dean!) and Tom Stoppard handling the script, it's a lifeless and predictable slog. On this episode of HOW DO YOU DO, FELLOW KIDS? we try to work out what went wrong, the moments we liked and, of course, we look closely at the Steve Buscemi content. CHECK IT OUT. The post Episode 78 – How Do You Do, Fellow Kids? – Billy Bathgate (1991) appeared first on Cinema Smorgasbord.

We bring 1991 to a close on this episode of Out of Touchstone, with two films featuring families adding new members.  First up, the hosts discuss BILLY BATHGATE, the organized crime thriller starring Dustin Hoffman and a young Nicole Kidman.  Both Mike and Chad agree that the acting and storytelling are superb, and wonder why this wasn't a bigger hit.  Finally, we wrap up the year with the remake of FATHER OF THE BRIDE, as Steve Martin attempts to fill Spencer Tracy's shoes as a man reluctant to watch his daughter grow up.  The movie has issues but also has a heart to it.  So long to another year of Touchstone films!

Aug. 30, 2014. Why are we drawn to movies based on the books we love? Is seeing believing or is reading enough? In this dynamic multimedia presentation and panel discussion at the 2014 National Book Festival, four great American novelists discuss and present film clips from movies that were based on their books. Speaker Biography: Ann Hornaday is film critic for The Washington Post. Speaker Biography: E.L. Doctorow is the author of acclaimed novels such as "Ragtime," "Billy Bathgate," "The Book of Daniel" and "City of God."
