DeNiro and Scorsese Reunite for New Mob Flick I Heard You Paint Houses
Well, I think it’s safe to say that the much-anticipated Robert DeNiro / Al Pacino reunion didn’t really pan out. By all accounts, Righteous Kill was about as far from a return to form as you can get, and everyone blamed director Jon Avnet for mishandling these two great stars. If only Martin Scorsese had […]

Well, I think it’s safe to say that the much-anticipated Robert DeNiro / Al Pacino reunion didn’t really pan out. By all accounts, Righteous Kill was about as far from a return to form as you can get, and everyone blamed director Jon Avnet for mishandling these two great stars. If only Martin Scorsese had been in the director’s chair, then maybe we would have had a winner… right? Well, guess what, we’re about to find out if that is actually true, because Scorsese’s lining up a new mob movie and he’s got Bobby DeNiro in mind for the lead role.

Variety reports that Paramount Pictures has optioned the book I Heard You Paint Houses, about the true story of hitman Frank “The Irishman” Sheeran, who supposedly carried out over 25 mob hits including Jimmy Hoffa. DeNiro will play Sheeran, and Steve Zaillian (American Gangster, Gangs of New York) will pen the script. What do you think, does this sound like something worth getting excited over? The only problem is we may have to wait for Scorsese to finish Shutter Island, Silence, The Last Duel and The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt first! Sheesh.

Bollywood Shuts Down Indefinitely as Workers Go on Strike
It has often been thought that India’s movie industry is wildly different from the American movie industry, but in reality, Bollywood and Hollywood have a lot of things in common.

It has often been thought that India’s movie industry is wildly different from the American movie industry, but in reality, Bollywood and Hollywood have a lot of things in common. Clearly they both have an influence on each other, and this week it seems that Bollywood is experiencing a situation similar to what happened in Hollywood last year, only on a larger scale. Over 100,000 movie and television workers went out on strike in India today, as a protest to irregular wages and the failure of producers to follow an agreement that was signed a year and a half ago. All shoots have been shut down for the time being while talks continue to resolve the situation.

India produces about 1,000 films a year, which means that there’s really no time to lose. It’s unclear how long the strike may continue for, but longer than 3 or 4 days “will be a big problem”, and this time of year is typically when they see the most movie ticket sales. Employees are asking studios to set better standards for working hours, better wages, and to avoid hiring non-union workers. They certainly sound like reasonable demands, so let’s hope that studios come to their senses soon.
