SWING VOTE
Running Time 120 minutes
Written By Jason Richman and Joshua Michael Stern
Directed By Joshua Michael Stern
Starring Kevin Costner, Stanley Tucci, Nathan Lane, Dennis Hopper, Kelsey Grammer, Madeline Carroll

Say about it what you will, but in an election year, you can’t accuse Kevin Costner’s political satire Swing Vote of failing to keep up with current events. With an eye on the box office coffers and a finger on the nation’s nervous pulse, this romp with a conscience, directed by Joshua Michael Stern, who co-wrote the edgy screenplay (with Jason Richman), features the new scruffy, self-deprecating and slightly graying Mr.  read more »

Dennis Hopper, one of the creepiest of all creepy actors thanks to his role in Blue Velvet, has signed to star in Starz's TV-adaption of the movie that ran away with the 2005 Best Picture Oscar, Crash. Starz will premiere the first episode in October. Variety reports:  read more »

The hunt for the buyer is on

Yesterday, Brownstoner broke the exhilarating news that the 31-foot beauty at 45 Montgomery Place had been sold for more than $6 million. (Oval rooms! Fireplaces! It's all there.)

According to the website, $6m would be the highest price ever paid for a 1-family townhouse in Park Slope. New Yorkers everywhere asked: who is the lucky, oval-loving owner?

According to our calculations (i.e. according to city records), that would be Gregory Bell, who bought the place for a clean $6,050,000.

But is it the mathematician Greg Bell, who studied the Asymptotic Dimension of Groups? Or is it TV's Gregory Bell? (He played Shakespeare in Dennis Hopper's "Witch Hunt.") Or is it NATO's Assistant Secretary General for Defense Investment, Mr. Robert Gregory Bell?

Probably the actor, no?

Frank Gehry directs the director.
Sydney Pollack's first documentary, Sketches of Frank Gehry, will be opening in theaters on May 12th. But Tribeca Film Festival attendees can catch it tonight at the DOLBY screening room, at 7 p.m.

Here's a bit from the release:

Beginning with Gehry's own original sketches for each major project, the film explores Gehry's process of turning these abstract drawings, first into tangible, three-dimensional models, often made simply of cardboard and scotch tape, then into finished buildings of titanium and glass, concrete and steel, wood and stone.
Plenty of business and art world big shots appear in the film, including Barry Diller, Michael Eisner, Sir Bob Geldof, Dennis Hopper, Michael Ovitz, Julian Schnabel, and Herbert Muschamp.

So will they be attending the screening tonight? Or how about Atlantic Yards opponents that have been known to follow the famous architect? - Michael Calderone]]> http://www.observer.com/node/34663#comments Real Estate Bob Geldof Dennis Hopper Julian Schnabel Sydney Pollack Tue, 02 May 2006 09:24:31 -0400 Observer Staff 34663 at http://www.observer.com Red Alert?
