Carlito's Way

Academy Award winner Al Pacino reunites with his Scarface director Brian De Palma for this tough-minded thriller about a gangster looking for salvation down the mean streets of 1970s New York City. Gangster Carlito Brigante (Pacino) gets released early from prison thanks to the work of his lawyer, Kleinfeld (Sean Penn, Milk). Vowing to go straight, Carlito nonetheless finds dangers waiting for him in the outside world. As Carlito works toward redemption, Kleinfeld sinks into cocaine-fueled corruption. When Kleinfeld crosses the mob, Carlito gets caught in the crossfire and has to face a hard choice: remain loyal to the friend who freed him or protect a new life with the woman he loves (Penelope Ann Miller, The Relic). With enemies closing in from all sides, Carlito must find his way before it's too late. Also starring John Leguizamo (Land of the Dead), Luis Guzmán (Magnolia), and Viggo Mortensen (The Lord of the Rings), Carlito's Way has come to be regarded as among De Palma's most accomplished films. A hard-hitting gangster noir laced with romance and melancholy, powerful performances and nail-biting suspense.

"Afraid To Love"

David Archuleta continues his recent onslaught of new music with the official release of the brand new music video HERE for his latest single, “Afraid To Love” HERE

“This song is about celebrating and getting people to dance. I wanted something that you could hear at a dance club or to get you jamming late at night in your house.  I’ve been learning to accept myself as I am and to not be afraid anymore of what people think of me. Letting go of any hate and declaring to everyone I’m not going to fear what people think of me for loving whoever I love.”

And, working with director Brad Hammer on the video concept was truly a new experience for me and so fun  incorporating super vibrant colors and dance elements into my video, something that I have shied away from in the past.”   states David.

 

David recently spoke about what’s on the horizon musically with Entertainment Weekly – “Up” it’s kind of like the prelude. It’s meant to tie where I’m coming from, my past, my history — but it’s also coming from a place where I was at the bottom of that, at the end of that path. I’ve lived out the end of this, and I don’t know where else to go. This is continuing down a very dark place, and I need to get out of it now. So, this is me saying, I’m accepting myself as I am, as a queer person, and letting myself be seen, every aspect of myself. And I’m just letting all of me be seen now. And not being so afraid of hiding myself and being afraid of what people will say if people find out. I’m just like, you know what, now they know! And now it’s just moving up, and I’m gonna have fun. There’s no need to hide anything anymore — just have a good time.  There are some really fun songs that are gonna get people dancing as well, that I’m really excited about. And there are still some classic ballads. I feel like these songs are more about love, something that I always shied away from before because it was something I didn’t relate to. I don’t think I ever really experienced love the way everyone talks about in songs and novels and all that. I’m talking about what it’s like for me to experience it for the first time really and fully. I’m excited to share that, in fun ways, dance ways, and also in ballad-y ways. I’m excited to share this new chapter and these new songs with everyone leading to a full album release later this year.

Michael's Musings

I'm Perfectly Incomplete, I'm Still Working On My Masterpiece
Michael Shinafelt

As the years turn one of the things you really understand is you take things step by step. I for one have never colored inside the lines. Patience with yourself is a virtue, you don't have to have it all figured out at once, FYI no one does.

Give yourself the gift of time, it all comes together the way it's supposed, trust me with this, it's the one subject matter I have expert experience with. Sally fourth!

Hey, I know your lane sucks, but I'm still going to need you to stay in it

Imahoe is not an Indian tribe, the more you know

We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that stupid people won't be offended

Hey Mercury, can you not right now?!?!

Hump Day & Chill

Cheers!
Madonna

Well Minions how could we not Hump Day & Chill to the Queen of Pop, Madonna's 65th Birthday today? I ask you, OK fine don't answer.

"Yes" Madonna turns 65 years young today. It seems like just yesterday I saw her on a video screen for the first time (and not like a virgin) at the 18 and older club Skoochies in Seattle, WA.

Madonna has had so much influence in music and pop culture that I don't even know where to begin and end.

Thus let's just give a Hump Day & Chill toast to the best selling female recording artist of all time!

Monday Motivation

Michelle Pfeiffer is here to give you a Monday Motivation reminder: Never put a live bird in your mouth.

Sounds like a common sense sort of thing right? Well I guess when you are playing Catwoman that common sense may fly out the window, or in Michelle's case your mouth. 

Anyway as we know Pfeiffer shot the scene and remained disease free post it. She clearly used at least one of her nine lives while filming.

Remember Minions putting things in your mouth that you shouldn't is for the birds, or in this case for the cats.
