Cumming, Heche & Boreanaz to Work for "Charity"
Actor/director Alan Cumming will helm and star in "Suffering Man's Charity," a dark comedy indie ensemble that just began production in Los Angeles.
Says The Hollywood Reporter: "Alan Cumming is starring in and directing "Suffering Man's Charity," a dark comedy that also stars David Boreanaz, Anne Heche, Henry Thomas and Carrie Fisher. DJ Paul, Donald Zuckerman and Craig Snider are producing the low-budget indie, which is in production in Los Angeles. Boreanaz plays a struggling writer who is accidentally killed by Cumming one evening. Cumming discovers the writer's novel and ends up taking credit for penning it. When it becomes a success, the writer comes back to haunt him."

Probably best known for his work in "X-Men 2" and the "Spy Kids" movies, Cumming also co-directed (with Jennifer Jason Leigh) the rather surprisingly good "The Anniversary Party."

 on Dec 13 2005 04:20 AM I'm not saying it is a rip-off, but it sounds mildly like the play 'Heap of Broken Images' by Girish Karnad. (Reply to this) |

on Dec 13 2005 12:22 PM Sounds allright, plus I like Cumming, Boreanaz, and Fisher. They could use a hit. (Reply to this) |

on Dec 13 2005 11:14 PM [b]Cumming..[/b] Cumming hasn't much talent, in my opinion. Boreanaz is very good, I've admired them for a while now. And, I'm sorry, but this film sounds utterly boring already. Ugh. Hollywood pretty much is falling apart. C'mon, Boreanaz, you're better than this. (Reply to this) |
