#JULIA ROBERTS BROTHER MOVIE#
Previously making 4 or 5 movies a year, he turns out 14 movie and TV titles in 1996, including the role of Perry Smith in the mini series "In Cold Blood" from Truman Capote. Not bad, and also a pretty good movie! He also appeared in The Specialist (1994) with Sylvester Stallone and Sharon Stone, though this is not one of my favorites.Įric has now started pouring on the work. He played a dark character, well within his grasp, in Final Analysis (1992) starring Richard Gere, Kim Basinger and Uma Thurman. Some better roles started coming Eric's way.
Eric also worked once with Julia in Blood Red (1989), which was also not very good. He married Eliza Garrett, now Eliza Roberts, and they have appeared on screen together at least 20 times. He was fighting with drug addiction, but he managed to get himself straightened out. 1959). Not long after these good parts, he made more movies like Rude Awakening (1989) with Cheech Marin. Definitely a step down.īy the late 1980s, Eric had fallen from popularity and was taking roles that didn't do him any good. He was also in Nobody's Fool (1986) co-starring Rosanna Arquette (b. In 1985 he was nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Oscar in Runaway Train, starring Jon Voight. By this time, his character was becoming known as the brooding young man with a gravelly voice. In 1984 he starred with Mickey Rourke and Daryl Hannah in The Pope of Greenwich Village. Star 80 also brought his first award as Best Actor by the Boston Society of Film Critics. His next movie, Star 80 (1983) would bring him some notice among casting directors. He would go on the star in several movies, but his career never fully carried him to real stardom. Next came Raggedy Man (1981), starring Sissy Spacek (b. His first movie was King of the Gypsies (1978) starring Susan Sarandon and Judd Hirsch. Eric was nominated for an Oscar and won 3 other awards.Įric started his career on the stage and moved into television work in 1974. Julia won an Oscar and has 39 other awards. Eric sports 245 titles on IMDb, compared to his sister's 50 roles, but I bet she made money money! That alone probably makes him a Bit Actor. 1956) is a very experienced actor, but I had never taken notice of him before. Go at your own peril.First of all, Happy Anniversary to the Drive-In Movie! It was 79 years ago today that the first drive-in opened in New Jersey. The cuteness of Cameron Diaz's performance, the beauty of Dermot Mulroney and a smashing Cary Grantish turn by Ruperet Everrett. Whatever the case, I saw it and it frightened me. Frightening on two counts - or audiences are blind and unaffected by the potential evil here or I'm raving mad and I'm seeing things.
The success of the film is another frightening aspect. I'm sure the director, producers etc didn't do it on purpose but they obviously didn't think the whole thing through. I though the premise was tapping into the worst in us and that in a comedy is really frightening. Not believing spoiled the whole fun for me. A woman, we're told, intelligent, successful, but her feelings are of the lowest most ignorant kind. It would have been like rooting for Joan Crawford in "Queen Bee" or Gene Tirney in "Leave Her To Heaven" She's a latent nasty piece of work. It was difficult to root for Julia Roberts.
