Movie Man
When film critic Will Pfeifer isn’t watching movies, he’s reading about movies, talking about movies, thinking about movies or dreaming about movies. Now he shares that unhealthy obsession with you. From Hollywood hits to Japanese obscurities, from Oscar night to the summer season, he’s got movies on the brain — and on this blog.

Here’s an interview worth reading

Most celebrity interviews are nothing but pre-packaged, pre-approved fluff, aimed solely at hyping whatever current project the celeb happens to be involved with.

But not this one.

Teri Garr, who has co-starred in such classics as YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN, THE CONVERSATION and TOOTSIE dishes the dirt on everyone in this Onion AV Club interview,  including Elvis Presley, John Denver, Dustin Hoffman, Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola and the late Sydney Pollack. It’s not exactly mean, but it is refreshingly honest. And, as a bonus, you learn that Cher’s wigmaker inspired the accent of Inga, her character in YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN.

Seriously, read it.

    Fun interview! Thanks for pointing it out.

    Like every male in the 1980s, I had a big crush on her. She was down to earth, sexy, and funny. Coincidentally, I rewatched AFTER HOURS and TOOTSIE recently. She was fantastic in both. I didn’t know she was nominated for an Oscar for her work in TOOTSIE, but she sure deserved it.
