Podcast appearances and mentions of Dick Van Patten

A CLASSIC ROCKER FINDS OUT HE HAS A LOVE CHILD FROM THE 80's, some insane Movies announced and A wild list of celebrities and how they caught their significant others cheating… it's like celebs are just like us guys!CRAP ON FRIDAY Rick Moranis has been gone way too long. Even those new "Ghostbusters" movies didn't lure him back to Hollywood. But I am quite excited to announce that he WILL return to once again play Dark Helmet in "Spaceballs 2"!!! Bill Pullman will return as the hero Lone Starr, too. And Mel Brooks will be back as Yogurt . . . and, presumably . . . President Skroob. (He played both characters in the original.) Josh Gad co-wrote the script, and he's expected to be in it, too. Pullman's son Lewis Pullman has also been cast, along with Keke Palmer . . . but there's no word who they're playing. There's also no word on any other returning cast members. Obviously, John Candy, Joan Rivers, and Dick Van Patten won't be back, since they're no longer with us. Mel released the first teaser yesterday. There's no footage, since filming hasn't begun yet. It starts with a text crawl that makes fun of all the "Star Wars" prequels, sequels, sequels to the prequels, prequels to the sequels, and TV spin-offs. Then it lists all the "Dune", "Jurassic Park", "Avatar", and Marvel movies, plus DC's TWO attempts to start a cinematic universe . . . and just about every other overdone franchise you can name. Then, after a quick appearance from Mel, we get a shot of Rick Moranis' cracked helmet, and the tagline: "The Schwartz Awakens in 2027." Which sounds like a possible title but it's spaceballs and mel brooks so it could be anything. Here is Mel making his announcement. Jerry Seinfeld Proposes ‘Live-Action Sequel' to 'Bee Movie'Jerry Seinfeld has people buzzin' with this idea!The comedic genius posted about the possibility of a “live-action sequel” to his 2007 animated hit Bee Movie.“Bee Movie, which came out nearly 20 years ago, is #4 on Netflix,” he wrote on Instagram showing a hand holding a tennis ball with a honey bee on it. The next slide was the movie's poster, an image of Seinfeld's character Barry B. Benson similarly straddling a tennis ball.“Today, my friend Spike Feresten, one of the writers on the film, was playing tennis and this happened."He continued, “Clearly a sign. Time for a live-action sequel..?" DreamWorks' Bee Movie, which Seinfeld produced, co-wrote, and starred in along with Renée Zellweger, has become a cult favorite since its release.Bee Movie also featured the voices of Matthew Broderick, John Goodman, Chris Rock, Kathy Bates, Megan Mullally, Oprah Winfrey, and several celebrities appearing as animated versions of themselves, including Larry King, Ray Liotta, and Sting.Saint Louis' own Nelly and Ashanti are putting their lives on TV for all to see. They announced an upcoming reality show called Nelly & Ashanti: We Belong Together.A show synopsis says Nelly and Ashanti "rekindle their love, navigate the ups and downs of being newlyweds and new parents, and juggle their careers."The eight-episode series will air on Peacock starting June 26th.A DNA Test Connects Billy Idol To A Son He Didn't Know He HadDetails on the lovechild Billy Idol didn't know he had until a few years ago have surfaced.Idol's daughter, Bonnie, shared in the new doc, 'Billy Idol Should Be Dead', "My husband just surprised me with a DNA test as a Christmas present [a few years ago]. Then a few weeks later, I get the results back on the app and open it and I'm like, who is this? This Brant. His info reads, 'New York, 1985, looking for my biological dad.' I was like, ‘What?'"Brant, Idol's lovechild, grew up believing his dad was someone else until a different DNA questioned his mother's claims about his father. After confronting his mom, she told Brant, "Well, it's pretty crazy, but back in the day, we broke up and I actually spent a weekend with Billy Idol."Fans have done the math and calculate that Brant was conceived during Idol's wildly successful 1984 'Rebel Yell' tour.Idol has whole-heartedly accepted Brant as family, saying, "I really enjoyed being a dad. I always wanted a boy and a girl, and I finagled my way into a boy and a girl. I actually had a son that I didn't realize, who I fathered on the Rebel Yell tour without knowing it. So I somehow finagled this as well."Brant was at Idol's Walk of Fame ceremony back in 2023.Prime Video Will Soon Show Double The AdsAmazon Prime Video is about to double the number of commercials shown per hour on its ad-supported membership level. An Adweek report got the news from an Amazon spokesperson about the amount of commercials going to "four to six minutes per hour" from the two to three minutes that Prime users are used to. In 2024, subscribers who had ad-free access were forced to pay an extra $3 a month to maintain the status. Jay-Z Loses $1 Million NBA Finals Bet Jay-Z is out $1 million after losing a bet on the NBA Finals. Jay placed a bet prior to the series, banking on the Oklahoma City Thunder to win the championship in five games. After Wednesday night's Thunder loss to the Indiana Pacers, OKC can't win the series unless they do it in six or seven games. Jay-Z would have won $3.5 million if the bet had cashed in. With a net worth of $2.5 billion, we're sure Jay-Z will be alright. Ok you guys remember Spinal Tap? The Album cover debate with the label and why it became an all black cover or as Nigel would say NONE MORE BLACK? It was because the original had a woman on all fours with a dog leash on and it was deemed sexist…. To which Nigel replies “Whats wrong with being sexy? Well get this, Sabrina Carpenter announced her new album yesterday, and it's causing a lot of controversy. It's called "Man's Best Friend", and the cover has Sabrina on all fours, in front of a man who's pulling a handful of her hair. A women's advocacy group in Scotland called it "regressive", saying it reduces women to, quote, "pets, props, and possessions," and promotes "an element of violence and control." Sabrina's fans are defending it as SATIRE, and a commentary on how badly women are treated. And some are pointing out that the first single, "Manchild", actually makes FUN of men. HERE IS A CLIP OF THATMeanwhile, in the new "Rolling Stone" cover story, Sabrina talks about being criticized for the sexual imagery in her stage show. She says, quote "It's always so funny to me when people complain. They're like, 'All she does is sing about this.' But those are the songs that you've made popular. Clearly you love sex. You're obsessed with it." She adds, quote, "I truly feel like I've never lived in a time where women have been picked apart more, and scrutinized in every capacity. I'm not just talking about me. I'm talking about every female artist that is making art right now." Pope Leo isn't even the most famous guy in his family. The "New York Times" researched his family tree, and found out that he's related to a bunch of celebrities. The link is an ancestor from about six generations back. He name was Louis Boucher de Grandpre, and he was born in Quebec.And because of him, Leo is distant cousins with Justin Bieber, Justin Trudeau, Angelina Jolie, Hillary Clinton, Jack Kerouac, and Madonna. It's interesting that Leo would be related to Madonna, given that the Catholic Church has condemned her several times . . . most famously when she released her "Like a Prayer" video in 1989. A few years ago, Madonna reached out to Pope Francis, asking to meet with him to discuss "important matters." She told him, quote, "I've been ex-communicated 3 times. It doesn't seem fair." If you've ever wondered how the creators of "Friends" came up with the character of Joey Tribbiani . . . we might just have the answer this morning. Joey Lawrence claims Matt LeBlanc's character was based on HIS character Joey Russo from "Blossom". Lawrence says, quote, "Joey Russo was so successful that when they were creating 'Friends', they wanted a 25-year-old version of that." Supposedly, Matt's character wasn't even originally called Joey, but they changed it because the "Blossom" character was so successful. Joey even claims that Matt was sent to tapings of "Blossom" where he would, quote, "sit up in the audience with a yellow notepad and take notes on how I portrayed Joey Russo." He says they wanted Matt to bring the "innocence" of Joey Russo to Joey Tribbiani, so the character could, quote, "get away with his womanizing." I guess the Grammys were sick of hearing about whether Beyoncé deserved to win Best Country Album for "Cowboy Carter". So, they just announced a major change. For next year's Grammys, the award formally known as Best Country Album will now be called Best Contemporary Country Album . . . and they will also be adding a new category: Best Traditional Country Album. There's a lot to unpack here. And one year after Beyoncé wins makes the timing of this all the more clickbait-y. According to the Grammy website, "traditional country music", quote, "adheres to the more traditional sound structures of the country genre, including rhythm and singing style, lyrical content, as well as traditional country instrumentation such as acoustic guitar, steel guitar, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, piano, and live drums." Where "contemporary country music", quote, "remains reminiscent and relevant to the legacy of country music's culture, while also engaging in more contemporary music forms." Someone tweeted, "Morgan Wallen and Post Malone better not be in the traditional country category at the Grammys, because in what world are they traditional country?" Wait, hold up. When Morgan collaborated with Alvin and the Chipmunks, that wasn't traditional country??New in Theaters: "How to Train Your Dragon", "Materialists", and "The Life of Chuck" There's nothing like a good breakup story. Here are seven times a celebrity found out their partner was cheating in an unconventional way: 1. Demi Moore learned that Ashton Kutcher was having an affair in 2011, from a Google Alert. When she called him on it, he admitted it right away. Her response was, quote, "Are you [effing] kidding me?" 2. Britney Spears started dating lawyer David Lucado in 2012. But in 2014, her father found out there was paparazzi footage of David kissing another woman. He bought it to prevent it from being released, and Britney broke it off. 3. Kourtney Kardashian dumped Scott Disick in 2008, after finding texts on his phone from a contact called, quote, "my wife." They did the on-and-off thing until 2015, when photos emerged of Scott with another woman in France. 4. Elizabeth Hurley found out Hugh Grant was cheating on her in 1995, when he got arrested for GETTING IT ON with Sunset Boulevard prostitute Divine Brown in his car. They didn't break up until 2000, and they're still friends. 5. Laura Dern found out Billy Bob Thornton was being unfaithful when the news broke that he had ELOPED with Angelina Jolie in 2000. She was away making a movie, and she never saw it coming. 6. Eva Longoria's marriage to NBA star Tony Parker ended in 2010, after she found inappropriate texts with another woman on his phone. 7. This one's ancient history, but it was a HUGE tabloid story back in the day: In 1958, actress Debbie Reynolds was missing her husband, Eddie Fisher, because he was supposedly away on tour. So she decided to give her friend Elizabeth Taylor a call . . . and who answered Liz's phone? Eddie FREAKIN' Fisher. (!!!) Eddie left Debbie and married Liz, but that only lasted five years.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's the ludicrously-belated fifth and final episode of WHAT WOULD WALT HAVE DONE? "MONTH" on Escape From Vault Disney! And to wrap up this batch of episodes on the most awkward time period in Disney history, the randomizer goes all the way back to 1976 to cover an example of Disney's most reliably lucrative (or at least, least reliably un-lucrative) genre at the time, the dumb-as-rocks slapstick-heavy live-action comedy! And what a comedy it was, assembling more exclamation-point-worthy TV stars than a primetime variety special - Ed Asner! Don Knotts! Tim Conway! Tom Bosley! Bob Crane! Dick Van Patten! Dick Butkus! The Guy Who Voiced The Cat From Outer Space! - and then casting them all in a motion picture where the REAL star is a dumb mule who somehow gets drafted as an NFL placekicker through the use of Air Bud logic twenty years before Air Bud. Ah well, at least he's not Harrison Butker. Join Tony Goldmark, Charlie Callahan, Zach Hurst and Cassie Shima as they all get kicked in the head by GUS!

It's still WHAT WOULD WALT HAVE DONE? MONTH on Escape From Vault Disney! And for our second belated episode of What Would Walt Have Done? Month, the randomizer goes all the way back to 1976 to pick an ambitious misfire released just in time for America's bicentennial, a would-be epic treasure hunt adventure set in the Reconstruction-era American South that aims to be Budget Mark Twain by way of Budget Robert Louis Stevenson, depicting America as a chaotic lawless hellscape where former slaves run back to their plantations, snake oil medicine can be refashioned into Molotov cocktails, impromptu hoedowns turn into attempted gangbangs at the drop of a hat and we're supposed to take the big evil frightening villain seriously even though his name is "Spangler."

This week on Fabulous Film and Friends we're maintaining course on our dark path down creepy 70's  sci fi as we explore two trailblazers in the world of robotics and AI: 1973's Westworld starring Yul Brynner, Richard Benjamin, James Brolin, Dick Van Patten, Steve Franken and Star Trek's Majel Barrett  up against 1975's The Stepford Wives starring Katherine Ross, Paula Prentiss, Peter Masterson, Tina Louise, Nanette Newman and a whole slew of middle aged men to prove that men can design women better than anybody.  My guests today are series regulars, David Johnson, Roseanne Caputi and Alex Robertson.  Before we roll, the synopses:  Set in a disturbingly near future, Westworld transports rich and lonely swinging singles Peter Martin and John Blane into a theme park /resort called Westworld populated by incredibly life like robots, including a black clad Gunslinger,  who inhabit an 1880's  Western town and are there to be shot, fought and screwed to the whims and pleasure  of the resort's guests. But when the robots start to malfunction and go on a rampage against all humans, guess who feels really stupid?  The Stepford Wives tells of the Eberharts, Walter and Johanna and their two daughters who escape the rat race of Manhattan and move to idyllic suburban town of Stepford, Connecticut. It's a perfect suburban dream for Walter but it turns out to be a nightmare for Joanna when she finds out that all the women are subservient, hard cleaning, perfectly domesticated sex objects for their husbands. The reason?  (Spoiler Alert!) THEY'VE BEEN TURNED INTO ROBOTS! Which robot movie wins?Find out! 

1976's THE SHAGGY D.A., the 19th and final film directed by Robert Stevenson for the Walt Disney Company, finds Dean Jones (the king of 60s and 70s live action Disney) playing Wilby Daniels who, for reasons too complicated to get into during this episode description, keeps transforming into a dog while trying to run for district attorney. And his son skateboards. This movie's got it all - pie fights, roller derby, a man in a dog suit punching Dick Van Patten in the face - and Kevin and Mike dive into its many delights, Disney's live-action films from this era, and Mike's childhood belief that D.A. stood for "duck's ass." So put down that magic ring, stop asking Tim Conway to list all 49 flavors of ice cream he's selling, and settle in for the latest exciting installment of GLEAMING THE TUBE!

 With the sugary Fruit Loops of Summer movie fare already upon us, this week on Fabulous Film & Friends we are going to fortify our intellectual palate with some meaty, heavy-duty late 60's early/70's sci fi and compare Franklin Schaffner's 1968 masterpiece Planet of The Apes, starring Charlton Heston, Roddy McDowell, Kim Hunter, Maurice Evans, Linda Harrison and James Whitmore with Richard Fleischer's 1973 downbeat detective story Soylent Green  also starring Mr. Heston, along with Edward G. Robinson, Leigh Taylor-Young, Brock Peters, Chuck Connors and Dick Van Patten in a role he was born to play as a  weaselly usher in a walk in euthanasia center.  Joining me as we venture down this dark path of 70's dystopia are series regulars David Johnson D.M.D, Roseanne Caputi, author, producer and NY resident George Young and the mighty Gordon Alex Robertson. But before we take the first bite: the synopses. Planet of the Apes centers around George Taylor, an astronaut on a deep space voyage whose mission entails returning to Earth 2000 years after the launch of the spacecraft. The vessel crash lands on what seems to be a far off planet inhabited by by dumb and mute humans who are ruled by intelligent but brutal talking apes. Taylor is captured by the apes and shot in the throat making him unable to talk, but when his larynx heals, he lets out the immortal line, “Get your paws off of me you damned dirty ape!” What follows is a tug of war over the perceived intelligence and fading dominance of mankind, leading Taylor to discover the shocking truth of his predicament on the planet.  Soylent Green takes place in what was once the future, the year 2022 where in a poisoned world with very little food and clean water, much of the overpopulated humanity living in squalid apartments and packed shoulder to shoulder, sleeping on stairwells, feeds on a government issued allegedly plankton-based food product called Soylent Green. Scuffling and sweaty Detective Robert Thorn is assigned a murder case where a wealthy power master named William Simonson was assassinated. Thorn follows a trail of murderous clues that lead him to the discovery of the exact nature Soylent Green itself. 

TGIFF - Annabel Andrews (Jodie Foster) is struggling with typical teenage issues - braces, the boy next door, and crusty dirt feet. Ellen, her mother (Barbara Harris), has her own set of problems to deal with - mothering and wifing to ungrateful husband, Bill (John Astin). Each of them think the other has it easy and make a fateful wish to switch places just for the day and have to walk a mile in each other's shoes. Boris (Marc McClure) has a sexual awakening, Ben (SPARKY MARCUS!) gets his life, Mrs. Schmauss (Patsy Kelly) gets fucking FIRED, and Dick Van Patten wears a neckerchief in this soul switching classic Freaky Friday - this time on Doom Generation!

Brent, Kate, and Nate launch blast off with the hilarious 1987 American space opera parody film Spaceballs starring: Mel Brooks, Bill Pullman, John Candy, Rick Moranis, Daphne Zuniga, Dick Van Patten, George Wyner, Michael Winslow, Joan Rivers, Lorene Yarnell, John Hurt, Sal Viscuso, Ronny Graham, Jim J. Bullock, Leslie Bevis, Rudy De Luca, Stephen Tobolowsky, Dom DeLuise, Rick Ducommun, Sandy Helberg, Dey Young, Jim Jackman, Jack Riley, and Terence Marsh."Spaceballs" received mixed reviews from critics upon its release in 1987. While some praised its humor and clever parodies of science fiction films, others criticized it for being too silly and lacking substance. In his review for The New York Times, Vincent Canby wrote, "The movie is so desperate for laughs that it's willing to try anything, no matter how feeble or obvious." Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times also criticized the film, saying, "I would have been grateful for some consistency, some sense that they knew where the joke was and were headed for it." However, other critics such as Hal Hinson of The Washington Post praised the film's irreverent take on the sci-fi genre, writing, "Brooks has constructed a brilliantly dumb, visually dazzling satire that manages to send up all the major science-fiction films of the past decade while simultaneously lampooning our own." In addition to mixed reviews from critics, "Spaceballs" also faced some challenges during its production. The film had a relatively modest budget of $22.7 million, and faced competition from several other high-profile releases that summer, including "RoboCop" and "The Witches of Eastwick." Additionally, some of the film's jokes and references were considered too obscure for mainstream audiences, and many viewers may have missed some of the film's more subtle nods to classic sci-fi movies. Despite these challenges, "Spaceballs" managed to find an enthusiastic fanbase over time, with many viewers appreciating the film's over-the-top humor, memorable characters, and quotable one-liners. Today, the film is considered a cult classic and a testament to Mel Brooks' enduring legacy as a master of parody and satire. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jim discusses a film he was drawn to because of the short story it was based on, 1968's "Charly," starring Cliff Robertson, Claire Bloom, Lilia Skala, Leon Janney, Ruth white, Barney Martin and Dick Van Patten. Robertson won the Best Actor Oscar for his portrayal of a mentally challenged man who volunteers for an experiment that changes his life. But, there are risks. Find out more about this acclaimed sci-fi gem on this week's episode of MONSTER ATTACK!

What's that on the air? Did you hear the baying moan of something almost human in the distance? Did you catch the scent of woodsmoke and viscera, dancing on the wind? It's time again for all that you most fear to rise up in your path. But hold fast — fear is the mind killer. Or so we heard somewhere. Didn't somebody say that? Was it Shakespeare? Kierkegaard? Dick Van Patten? Well, no matter who said it, we live it, bud. Join the Cinesthesia Boys as they get real messy and gross to no functional purpose whatsoever. Trick or treat, you kings of New England, you absolute brick outhouses!!! Join a filmmaker (and sometimes film teacher) and a film teacher (and sometimes filmmaker) as they venture into the dark heart of their own befuddled relationship to culture, the youth, the internet, friendship, love, hate, time, space and, of course: *m*o*v*i*e*s*. Come hear what we see. CINESTHESIA is produced by Iguanodonald Studios and distributed by Split Tooth Media. Music for CINESTHESIA is generously provided by the greatest bands that have ever been, The Coctails, Soft Healer, and Misters Presidents.

It may not be surprising that the self-titled debut album from Foreigner was a hit, since all the members had previously worked with successful acts, making this collaboration a bit of a supergroup.  British guitarist and songwriter Mick Jones came from Spooky Tooth.  Multi-instrumentalist and fellow Brit Ian McDonalds had played in King Crimson.  They were joined by another Englishman, drummer  Dennis Elliott (from Ferris Wheel and The Roy Young Band).  Other members were American, including Al Greenwood on keyboards, Ed Gagliardi on bass, and Lou Gramm on vocals.  The band had the name Trigger for their demo tapes, but swapped that name out when they found another band had already taken it.  The name Foreigner was suggested by Mick Jones, because with three English members and three American members, at least half the band would be foreigners — wherever they played.The debut album Foreigner would create three hit singles and would be certified 5x platinum in the US, the first of four albums (this one, Double Vision, Head Games, and 4) from the group to achieve such a high level of success.Foreigner would prove to be one of the biggest bands of the late 70's through the 80's.  Lou Gramm would split from the group in the 1990, return in 1992, and leave again in 2003.  Foreigner still tours today, but Mick Jones is the sole original member of the group. Feels Like the First TimeThe leading track and first single released would be the first hit by the group, reaching number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Mick Jones wrote this track prior to the start of Foreigner, when he had met a new love after this previous marriage dissolved.  It was a feeling that his life was entering a new phase. I Need YouThis song concludes the album and is a deeper cut with great bass licks and chord progressions.  "Many is the time I've cursed the Lord's creations.  Ah, but you touched my hand, I loved this new sensation."StarriderAnother deeper cut with more prominent keyboards, this one features Mick Jones on lead vocals.  The song reminds us of "Crystal Ball" by Styx.  You might agree it has a medieval or fantasy feel.  Long, Long Way from HomeThe third single from the album gives the perspective of a person moving from a small town to a large city, and the loneliness that results.   Lou Gramm has said this song is autobiographical, reflecting his move from Rochester, New York to New York City.  "I was inside looking outside.  Oh, the millions of faces, but still I'm alone." ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Theme from the television series “Eight Is Enough”The family drama starring Dick Van Patten would debut in March of 1977.  It was about a single father raising eight kids. STAFF PICKS:Year of the Cat by Al StewartBrian opens our staff picks with a haunting tune.  The song originated from a riff piano player Tim Renwick would play before concerts.  Many of the lyrics were inspired from watching the movie Casablanca.  The title comes from a Vietnamese calendar which indicated that 1975 was the Year of the Cat.Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes by Jimmy BuffettWayne brings us one of the standard songs of summer.  The song itself barely cracked the top 40, but has taken on a timelessness with more than just the "Parrot Heads" that attend multiple Buffett concerts.  "With all of our running and all of our cunning, if we couldn't laugh we would all go insane."Georgia Rhythm by the Atlanta Rhythm SectionBruce features a local Atlanta band who was big in 1977.  The Atlanta Rhythm Section was formed from former members of the Candymen and the Classics IV who had come to Atlanta as the session band for Studio One in Doraville in 1970.  This song is off their sixth studio album, and the first album to get significant airplay.  The big hit was "So Into You," but "Georgia Rhythm" got a lot of airplay in Atlanta for obvious reasons.Maybe I'm Amazed (live) by Paul McCartney & WingsRob  wraps up the staff picks with a song originally recorded in 1970 for McCartney's first album, but never released as a single.  This live version was released in February 1977. This touching song was inspired by his romance with his wife, Linda.   INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Fanfare for the Common Man by Emerson, Lake & PalmerThis was originally written by Aaron Copeland in response to America's entry into the Second World War.  The ELP version came about when Emerson was playing the piece on keyboards.  Greg Lake came in with a shuffle pattern on bass, and Palmer added in the drums.  The engineer was rolling tape and the first time the band played the song through is what made the album.

Once upon a time warp, Mel Brooks made a Star Wars parody that helped shaped the childhood of everyone on this episode.

Fan of the show, and one of our favorite people, Michael, requested we watch the movie 7 Days To Vegas on Prime Video.  Mike is a former Angelino, Vegas resident and pro gambler, so we knew he would like a movie about a poker player who takes a prop bet to walk from L.A. to Vegas.But would we like it?Not only did we like it, but in researching the movie, we fell deep into the Van Patten rabbit hole that continued as a 6 degrees of separation through-line for the entire show. We hope you were able to keep up!The movie stars Vince Van Patten, his brother James Van Patten, his real-life wife Eileen Davidson (soap opera legend and Real Housewife of Beverly Hills), and has a cameo from his brother Nels Van Patten.Vince's dad is the veteran actor Dick Van Patten, his aunt is actress Joyce Van Patten. His uncle is producer/director of Perry Mason, Timothy Van Patten. And his cousin is Talia Balsam, daughter of his Aunt Joyce and the celebrated actor Martin Balsam. Talia is the ex-wife of George Clooney and the current wife of John Slattery, who worked, of course, with Rich Sommer on Mad Men, which we'll get to later.It's more about the prop bet than the poker table7 Days to Vegas is a fun, easy movie about a crazy "prop bet" between a down and out actor and a douche-bag director and the crew of degenerate gamblers they play with. Poker players and gamblers will like it. Anyone who has lived on the fringes of Hollywood will recognize the characters as guys we all know. Vimeo describes it as "an edgy comedy based on the true story of the rise and fall of one of Hollywood's biggest poker games. The names have been changed to protect the guilty."We're not sure how much is true, but we know the bet was real because Vince van Patten was the guy who took the gamble. We know first hand that the depiction of the Hollywood private poker scene is spot on. And we know the Van Patten's have been a gambling family for generations. There's a lot of truth in this movie and in it's characters. It never does reach it's potential in our opinion only because we know people just like the ones in this movie, and they are a rich source for comedy, but 7 Days To Vegas is still worth the ride.If you're looking for a feel-good, (The Hangover for guys over 40) 92-minute break from the crazy, check it out on Prime or Vimeo for rent or free on Tubi and Sling.Big thanks to Mike for the recommendation!
