Michelle Pfeiffer Predicted Stardom for Keanu in ‘Dangerous Liaisons’

Michelle Pfeiffer Predicted Stardom for Keanu in ‘Dangerous Liaisons’

Michelle Pfeiffer predicted stardom for a young, unknown Keanu Reeves. That revelation comes as director Stephen Frears joins The Hollywood Reporter‘s It Happened in Hollywood podcast to discuss the making of his 1988 hit, Dangerous Liaisons. The film starred Glenn Close and John Malkovich, playing conniving aristocrats in pre-French Revolution Paris who manipulate the people around them through sex and deception. Among their victims are characters played by Pfeiffer and Uma Thurman. Reeves, then 23, was cast as Le Chevalier Danceny, a handsome musician who draws the attention of Close’s Marquise de Merteuil and falls in love with Thurman’s naive ingénue — then duels Malkovich’s Valmont for her honor. Speaking on the podcast, Frears recalled that Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure was released just months after Dangerous Liaisons, turning Reeves overnight into a major movie star. “But when he shot, he hadn’t [yet broken out,]” Frears said. “I saw a lot of young actors [for the role] and said, ‘I like him.’ [Screenwriter] Christopher Hampton actually thought I’d gone mad. But I said, ‘No, no — …

Al Pacino Oscars 2024 Best Picture Announcement Explained

Published by Sam

Al Pacino‘s unconventional delivery of the 2024 Oscars’ best picture winner Sunday night had some people in the audience wondering if the Godfather star was winging it with Oscar tradition, but Pacino says he was largely following the Academy’s own script.  “There seems to be some controversy about my not mentioning every film by name last night before announcing the best picture award,” Pacino said in a statement issued Monday. “I just want to be clear it was not my intention to omit them, rather a choice by the producers not to have them said again since they were highlighted individually throughout the ceremony.  I was honored to be a part of the evening and chose to follow the way they wished for this award to be presented. “I realize being nominated is a huge milestone in one’s life and to not be fully recognized is offensive and hurtful,” Pacino continued. “I say this as someone who profoundly relates with filmmakers, actors and producers so I deeply empathize with those who have been slighted by this …

It was almost a Scarface reunion at the 96th Academy Awards! Al Pacino and Michelle Pfeiffer were both previously announced as presenters on Hollywood’s biggest night, but the latter was a no-show during Sunday’s prestigious awards ceremony.  ET has learned that there was a matter that came up early last week that kept Pfeiffer on the East Coast and unable to attend the Oscars.  In her stead, the 83-year-old actor hit the stage solo as he presented the award for Best Picture to Oppenheimer.

Married to the Mob Becomes TikTok Trend Amid 30th Anniversary

Married to the Mob Becomes TikTok Trend Amid 30th Anniversary

Published by Sam

More than 30 years ago, Married to the Mob was a bona fide hit, well before making its mark as a TikTok trend. Jonathan Demme’s comedy stars Michelle Pfeiffer as Angela de Marco, who is fed up with her Long Island Mafia-adjacent lifestyle and eyes a new path after her husband, Frank (Alec Baldwin), is killed by his crime boss (Dean Stockwell).  Edward Saxon, a producer on the film, tells THR that Demme encouraged the crew — including costume designer Colleen Atwood, who has since won four Oscars — to embrace the outlandish nature of the project. “Jonathan didn’t say to anybody, ‘Tamp it down,’ ” Saxon recalls. “It was, ‘Let’s have fun with this.’ And that describes the mob wife costumes.”  Before its release from Orion Pictures on Aug. 19, 1988, the distributor’s president, Joel H. Resnick, was feeling bullish, telling THR at the time that there was “good audience response to the film, and exhibitors responded very strongly to it.” Married to the Mob collected $21 million ($55 million today), along with an Oscar nomination for Stockwell. …
