So why the hell did Harvey Keitel do this crapodrama on ABC |
|
I was checking out on IMDB the "Path to 9/11 as told by right-wing bloggers" and noticed that of all things, Harvey Keitel was the lead actor.
You know, I always thought of Harvey Keitel as a talented actor who doesn't seem to ever be lacking for a script. He has long ties with Scorese, Tarentino, and DeNiro which pretty much would keep him employed until his deathbed.
So why the hell is he in this crap that is based on nothing but lies.
No one held a gun to his head, as far as I'm concerned I have no desire to see another Keitel movie again

I know people think that's petty. But the situation in our country is so dismal due to the neocon control through huge amounts of cash that I just can't in good conscious support anyone who collaborates with this administration. Keitel made his choice to be in this junk propaganda. He has to live with that decision.

3. Maybe he needed the work. |
|
Seems like it's been a while since I saw him in anything at all.
But if he has an iota, just one iota of concern for the truth, he'd have passed on this script.

4. You mean "Mr. Abuser"? |
|
He treated Lorraine Bracco very, very badly -- including physical hurting her while she was pregnant with their child. He fucking sucks.

5. I'm sorry to learn that. |
|
I always liked his work. And while I will do my best to avoid anything new that he does, I can't imagine never seeing great films like Reservoir Dogs, etc. again.

awww man... I liked him in News Radio and Office Space...
Have no idea of his personal politics - maybe just needed work and this was billed as an "important" film. Noticed Patricia Heaton is in this too, not a suprise I suppose, but I didn't recognize any other names.
