It’s a fun Scorcese movie - if you can imagine that. Alice is a single mother with lousy taste in guys, saddled with a kooky kid. She moves around the southwest trying to find a job as a singer. It says a lot about Reagan and Trump voters although, of course, the movie is completely a-political.
Great performances from a cast that includes Ellen Burstyn, Kris Kristofferson, Jodie, the little boy who plays her son, and an explosive performance from Harvey Keitel.
As a former student of Stella Adler, I can tell you that Harvey Keitel is nothing like the character he plays in this movie or other movies.
Sounds seriously wonderful. And Kris Kristofferson back in the day......be still my heart. I’ll let you know when I finally watch it.
Keitel has played some really twisted parts. Always found him attractive. Amazing actor. He seems like he would be the consummate professional. I enjoy your slice of life stories!
