Rachel Brosnahan Special Effects The Marvelous Mrs Maisel

“MRS MAISEL” KNOWS HOW TO USE SPECIAL EFFECTS

SO happy to see that Rachel Brosnahan is in New York filming the next season of The Marvelous Mrs Maisel. We are totally addicted to the look of this series. Not only are the late 1950’s fashions (and hairstyles) spectacular for all the characters, but the sets are mind-blowing. This season’s midcentury Catskill resort was perfection, but we fondly remember the first season when there were dazzling street scenes in New York’s garment district with every car, building, and garment true to the era. And racks and racks of fifties frocks were being rolled down the street just like the old days. These are the kind of turn-back-time special effects we appreciate – NOT explosions and car crashes…

Age Al Pacino Robert De Niro Special Effects The Irishman

THE IRISHMAN: SPECIAL EFFECTS WILL MAKE ROBERT DE NIRO LOOK 30 YEARS OLD

Robert De Niro is on a set in Queens beating up a shopkeeper for his new film The Irishman. It’s about a REALLY nasty gangster named Frank “The Irishman” Sheeran and flashbacks of his 25 mob murders – including Teamster leader Jimmy Hoffa. Scorsese is directing all his favorites – DeNiro, Al Pacino (he plays Hoffa,) Joe Pesci, Harvey Keitel etc in this gangster epic said to rival Goodfellas. The film’s huge budget stalled production until Netflix took over. Interestingly, DeNiro, 74, has to start out the movie as a 30 year old, so the same special effects team that made Brad Pitt age backwards for Benjamin Button will make DeNiro look young. It’s worth seeing just for THAT…
