The entire time Michael talked I kept going back to a movie from 83' called Star 80.
This movie is why I could never like Eric Roberts (Julia's Brother) because he played the part so well.It was an honest and painfully authentic biography about Dorothy Stratten, who was Playboy's Playmate of the Year for 1979 and had just begun a promising film career when her jealous husband took a shotgun to her head.
Well, Michael IS slick charmer Paul Snider. He's a loser and a user (Amazon).
Star 80 (the title is taken from Snider's vanity license plates) is no simple tale of male ego gone bad.As the husband/manager living off his wifes fame and popularity, he comes across as a second rate Ike Turner.
The many comments made about Snider also f it Michael. Michael looked like a hustling,two-bit pimp IMHO!
