John Turturro

“FADING GIGOLO” HAS MORE THAN A TOUCH OF WOODY ALLEN

We walked into screening of “Fading Gigolo” with hopeful expectations – and they were realized. It’s ALMOST a Woody Allen movie. Call it “Woody Allen light.” Woody, who is an actor in the movie, must have had some input when it comes to his own dialog because his character was exceptionally funny, It’s John Turturro’s film, but he is obviously influenced by Woody’s sense of humor in the best possible way. It’s light and sweet and fun and Vanessa Paradis plays a Hasidic woman in a brown wig!

JOHN TURTURRO AND WOODY ALLEN MAKE A WINNING PAIR

John Turturro might be the LAST person we’d picture as a gigolo but he certainly imagines HIMSELF as a plausible ladies man in “Fading Gigolo” John wrote and directed and stars in the movie. He assembled an impressive cast for his comedy. Woody Allen costars as Turturro’s cash-strapped friend who becomes his pimp. Sofia Vergara, Sharon Stone, Vanessa Paradis, and Liev Schreiber add to the fun. It debuts in September at the Toronto Film Festival. John and Woody look like they’re on the same wavelength. We’re looking forward to this one.

Her 27 year old boyfriend, model Martin Mica, has added a spark to Sharon Stone’s happy appearance. He’s in New York with her while she films “Fading Gigolo” with Woody Allen and John Turturro. The movie is written and directed by Turturro, who plays an aging male prostitute with Woody as his pimp. Sharon plays a busy dermatologist who hires Turturro for sex, if you can imagine THAT. Life is good for Sharon – she has four movies coming out next year. (Above, Sharon is accompanied to the set)
