Miller's Crossing (1990)
Synopsis: A highly styled 'genre' film which can perhaps be seen as a pastiche of all gangster movies. Tom Reagan is the laconic anti-hero of this amoral tale which is also, paradoxically, a look at morals within the criminal underworld of the 1930s. Two rival gangs vie for control of a city where the police are pawns, and the periodic busts of illicit drinking establishments are no more than a way for one gang to get back at the other. Black humour and shocking violence compete for screen time as we question whether or not Tom, right-hand man of the Irish mob leader, really has a heart.
Genre: Crime, Drama
Run Time : 115 Min.

Nearly 40 years on, his diary account The Prince, the Showgirl and Me was published, but one week was missing and this was published some years later as My Week with Marilyn – this is the story of that week.

At least that's what Dan Aykroyd said in a recent interview. The pre-production for "Ghostbusters 3" is turning into something of a soap opera, with Aykroyd pushing to make it and Bill Murray constantly displaying his lack of interest for the project. Of course Murray was one of the main attractions of the Ghostbusters franchise, but since the new movie is going to involve a new batch of Ghostbusting recruits, Murray's participation in the project is no longer a requirement. Aykroyd also dropped a few hints about the characters in the sequel. Here's what he had to say about the project :
The bigger issue here, other than whether or not they're actually going to make it, is if it's even worth making. They had a great cast for the first two movies and an interesting ensemble of characters. Sometimes the magic can be re-created, but it's a gamble, and if Dan Aykroyd is only doing it to get his name out there now that he's not doing a lot of work in Hollywood these days, I'm not sure they can get it right. I think Bill Murray knows this and that's why he's trying to keep himself out of it. They've been testing the waters with some Ghostbusters videogames recently, which means that they're really interested in reviving the franchise. I suppose we should be thankful it's not a remake, but I'm afraid a tired sequel is not the answer, either.
