built 633 days ago
Hollywood publication Variety broke the news, announcing that Kevin Spacey had been in meetings with director Bryan Singer, who is ... set to grab the camera-reins once more. Whether they can do a decent job of things this time around does, admittedly, remain to be seen … although hecklerspray has a sneaking suspicion that the upcoming Batman sequel may well make every other superhero flick look like a pointless mess in comparison. Although Spiderman 3 did manage a pretty good job of looking like a pointless mess anyway.

BY JAMES SUROWIECKI | Esquire's October cover story on Kevin Spacey has generated more attention than the magazine got during the three years Ed Kosner served as editor. The magazine's new editor, David Granger, must be gloating -- even though Tom Junod, the two-time National Magazine Award winner who authored the Spacey piece, has been widely lambasted by publicists, editors and columnists for pseudo-outing Spacey. The actor himself slammed the piece, calling it "dishonest and malicious"; his agent told other clients to snub Esquire and its reporters. In the brouhaha surrounding Junod's piece, no one has mentioned the most interesting thing about the story, which is that Junod spends as much time stuffing Spacey into the closet as he does dragging him out of it.

Actor Kevin Spacey made his directorial debut with this thriller. Dova (Matt Dillon), Milo (Gary Sinise), and Law (William Fichtner) are three small-time crooks on the run after a botched robbery of a New Orleans warehouse led to a car chase, causing the death of two cops. Needing a place to hide, with Milo seriously injured, they sneak into Dino's Last Chance Bar, a shot-and-a-beer joint located on a side street in a basement. Before long, the bar is surrounded by a squadron of Federal agents and SWAT officers. The three robbers are convinced that the cops are trying to flush them out, but it turns out that they aren't the only crooks in search of a cold beer at Dino's. Smart-suited Guy (Viggo Mortensen) is actually an international dealer in illegal arms that the cops were trailing when they stumbled across the robbery gone wrong.

"We live in a world where infotainment has just run rampant," declared reluctant celebrity Kevin Spacey in an interview several years ago. "Frankly, I don't want anyone to know anything about me. The longer an actor can remain in the shadows, the characters will emerge." Out of the limelight for so long, the New Jersey-born actor has, in the last few years, won a brace of Oscars and finally gone centre stage.
