And David Aaron Baker played Alan Jackson. What a turn-about of casting that would be. Out of curiosity, @gano , what did you think of Al Pacino as Phil Spector? I truly enjoyed his performance, but I have noted that we don’t always agree when it comes to actors and movies.
As far as the whole Phil Spector thing, I came away from that movie thinking he may well have been factually innocent. Later on down the road, on public radio, I was listening to an interview with someone about Phil Spector, and this person was talking about how well known it was that Spector liked to pull out guns and point them at people, and it was just a matter of time before one went off. Who knows. But if all one had to go on was the movie, I thought that a compelling defense was presented (which assumed the hammer was back and front sight caught on teeth causing finger to depress trigger, and lack of blood spatter). However, forming opinions and judgements on solely the basis of a movie would be a mistake. Unless it was a very good movie, such as the one we were working on.
As far as Haunted Heart, I won’t throw any spoilers out (except to say that there is a twist), but if you appreciate Matt Dillon's acting, you will enjoy this one. And speaking of Matt Dillon, how about Wild Things(1998)? I don’t think that it has been mentioned yet on this thread, but that was another movie I found to be truly enjoyable with a great cast. Bill Murray has added something good to almost every movie I have seen him in.
