Joe Pesci

HAS JOE PESCI GONE HOLLYWOOD?

Sporting a cream colored cashmere double breasted topcoat and SUNGLASSES AT NIGHT, it appears that The Irishman gangster Joe Pesci has “gone Hollywood”- and indeed, he has. For the past 30 years, Joe has lived at the Jersey Shore in an 8 bedroom 8 bathroom mansion. A few weeks ago, Joe put his home on the market for 6.5 million and he admits he has finally decided to move the sunny Los Angeles where he can play golf year around.

ROBERT DE NIRO LOVES HIMSELF IN “THE IRISHMAN”

The Irishman premiered last night in New York and we can hardly WAIT to see the de-ageing process that allows Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, and Al Pacino ‘s characters age through the decades – from the late 40’s to the late 90’s. The computer imaging that made these older actors look much younger was so impressive to Robert De Niro that when he saw himself, he joked “This could extend my career for another 30 years!” Netflix is thrilled with the good reviews, but everyone is wondering how moviegoers will react to the three and a half hour length of this film!

WHO KNEW? JOE PESCI CAN DO THE PEPPERMINT TWIST!

Joe Pesci had dinner in West Hollywood with an attractive young woman- and it looks like they took some food home. You haven’t seen the Goodfellas star lately because he’s semi-retired. Or maybe he wants to concentrate on his first love – music. Did you know he played guitar for awhile for 60’s band Joey D and the Starliters? (The Peppermint Twist) He was replaced by- of all people- Jimi Hendrix, and started acting. Good news- he came out of retirement to costar in Scorsese’s Netflix film, The Irishman, with his buddies DeNiro and Pacino.

“LOVE RANCH” – WE HOPE THE MOVIE IS AS GOOD AS THE TRAILER

We became mesmerized by this trailer for “Love Ranch” and we are SO ready to see this film! After all those action video game movies we suffered through this month – here comes a real sexy drama! It’s based on a true story about a married couple in the 1970’s (played by Joe Pesci and Helen Mirren) who open the first legal brothel in Nevada. (Gina Gershon and Taryn Manning are two of their “girls”) When a gorgeous South American boxer is thrown into the mix, a surprisingly passionate love triangle leads to murder. Take a look at the trailer and see if you can resist seeing this one. (It opens June30)
