Last Rites (1988)
Donald P. Bellisario 1h 43m [Day 12, 2024 - Trashy Tuesday]
"You are all witnesses! The wop started it!" - O'Bannon
Tumblr media
Last Rites is what happens when you want to make a cool mafia film, but plot, good casting and assured direction are incidental. But still, it will be so cool!
Packed with Italian American cliches, this movie has more cheese than a Kraft factory.
Tumblr media
It essentially follows a film noir framework, with all of the gravitas of Chef Boyardee.
Tom Berrenger plays mafia connected priest Father Michael Pace (pah-chay), who smokes, drinks, and bullies the other priest in his parish.
Word spreads quickly through the Italian mob community that underboss, Geno has been taken out. But who killed him?
It was mafia daughter Zena, Geno's wife who shot him - catching him in the arms of his Mexican mistress Angela (Daphne Zuniga), doing it against a lot of curtains.
Tumblr media
Angela narrowly escapes the gunfire, and with possibly the least convincing Mexican accent of all time, finds herself at church in a confessional spilling the beans to Fr. Pace.
Angela doesn't know it, but Zena is Fr. Pace's sister.
Tumblr media
He vows to keep her safe, despite his ties to Zena (Anne Twomey - giving her best Anjelica Houston impersonation). He also vows to keep it in his pants.
Fr. Michael is not great at the whole "keeping your vows" thing.
I still viscerally remember how much Roger Ebert hated Last Rites, calling it, "easily the most offensive big budget picture of 1988". I waited decades to experience what he was talking about. And it is so wonderfully, unintentionally funny. *
Tumblr media
The film draws from some great inspirations. A little Scarface, some Fatal Attraction. It had me wondering if Jonathan Demme or Brian De Palma could have done something with this material. I think the first thing they'd do is rewrite it.
It's terrible. I'll probably watch it again.
Tumblr media
Pair with / watch instead: Prizzi's Honor, Married to the Mob
TRAILER:
youtube
* So sidenote...
I was really trepidatious about watching Last Rites. I kept pushing it off. I remember the terrible Siskel & Ebert review - Ebert went in hard and it stuck with me. I was worried it would be terrible and I wanted it to be awesome. In my mind, there could be nothing more appealing than this Berenger/ Zuniga pairing. Before watching, I get to imagine everything this movie could be and watching it locks in a specificity I sensed I would find distasteful, like nationalism or spaghetti straps. But I had to confront it. Just watch it and accept history as it is and not the poster. Sort of like Electric Dreams.

Guest Cast for Thunderbirds Are Go
New and Returning characters for Thunderbirds are Go.
https://www.thunderbirds.com/en/news/article/58
Spoilers under the cut. Also some thoughts.
Thunderbirds Are Go returns in May to ITV & CITV with all-new epic episodes featuring a whole host of incredible guest voice actors. Jennifer Saunders (Absolutely Fabulous, French & Saunders) voices Helen Shelby, a no-nonsense biologist who designed the stunning Supreme Barrier Reef. Alan Ford (Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch) returns as cockney Light-Fingered Fred, joined by Larry Lamb (Eastenders, Gavin & Stacey) as Gomez - two 'friends' from Parker's criminal past who want to use FAB1 as a getaway car in their criminal exploits. Sylvester McCoy (Doctor Who) stars as Aezethril the Wizard, a whacky and dramatic inventor of holographic game park 'Cavern Quest', a real-life experience based on one of Alan Tracy’s favourite video games.
The guest cast list for these episodes includes:
Alan Ford (Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels), returning as Light-Fingered Fred
Jennifer Saunders (Absolutely Fabulous) as Helen Shelby
Larry Lamb (Eastenders) as Gomez
Marcel McCalla (Footballers' Wives) as Robbie
Navin Chowdhry (Star Wars: The Last Jedi) as Cameron
Nina Sosanya (Love, Actually, W1A) as Asher
Sylvester McCoy (Doctor Who) as Aezethril the Wizard
Tom Rosenthal (Friday Night Dinner, Plebs), returning as Brandon Berrenger
Vas Blackwood (Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels), returning as Pirate Reece
Some  thoughts
As Brandon Berrenger is returning, I wonder if Scott will be involved in his rescue again.
I guess Pirate Reece companion (I can’t remember his name) isn’t appearing.
The video game quest thing, sounds interesting.  So that rock monster in the trailer is part of this episode. It’s great that another Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) from Dr Who is voicing a guest character.

I watched the movie “The Big Chill” for the first time as an adult this afternoon. I saw it as a teenager and it was a much better movie this time around. I guess I could simply comprehend more of it this time. 
Some random comments
Tom Berenger looked a bit strange in the stache
Berrenger’s Magnumesque TV show intro was funny
Kevin Kline actually looked somewhat young for once
Jobeth Williams reminded me a lot of Marcia Gay Harden
Meg Tilley was extremely cute in it.
Would make a for an interesting sequel at this point 35 years later
All of Kevin Costner’s scenes were cut. It would be interesting to see a version with those included.
