WOODY HARRELSON’S NICE LIFE: HE LEFT MAUI TO VISIT THE AMALFI COAST

You don’t often get to see Woody Harrelson looking like a happy family man – maybe because he lives in Maui and there aren’t so many paparazzi. But this week he was visiting the Amalfi Coast in Italy with his wife Laura and his excited 12 year old daughter Makani. Laura was his personal assistant before they married in 2008. They have two other daughters – Deni, 25 and Zoe, 21, not along for the trip. He was Oscar nominated for “Three Billboards,” but Woody’s next film is Marvel’s Venom with Tom Hardy and Michelle Williams, coming in October.

Interesting note: Woody’s not looking at his phone – he’s carrying a deck of cards…

LIFE IS BEYOND HORRIBLE IN “OUT OF THE FURNACE”

This is a movie that only a man loaded with testosterone could sit through. Female characters in “Out of the Furnace” are inconsequential. The violence, negativity, and brutality, are enough to make one question the evolution of humanity. Don’t expect an ounce of humor or sensitivity, just one dismal gut-wrenching episode after another. We couldn’t help thinking “What are people in other countries going to think of Americans when they see this?” The writing, directing, and acting are skillful, but totally wasted on the nihilistic subject matter. The time we spent watching this movie was torture and we had to walk out early. We weren’t the only ones unable to sit through this – we found traumatized women in the bathroom. Of course, we expect this movie to be a big hit with juiced up teenage boys. (Above, Woody Harrelson plays the vilest character we’ve seen on film.)
