Happy Birthday to
Rita Moreno
78 today
There are few dresses in cinema that are seered into my mind as much as Rita's frock for "America". The colour and line both look fantastic on her. She may have better songs in West Side Story, but this is what stays with me. Next up, if it gets made, is the account of 4 New York Basketball players who were shot by North Carolina Police without due cause.

Laurence Fishburne
Happy Birthday to
Laurence Fishburne
48 today
Of all the projects (8, according to IMDb) Laurence is working on it's the one's I think I'm least likely to be able to see that I'm most interested in. Black Water Transit is the Hurricane Katrina inspired thriller from the controversial director Tony Kaye - somehow I doubt it'll ever see the inside of a cinema. And 4Chosen has already been pushed back over two years in production. I just can't bring myself to feeling excited about Armoured.

Louis Gossett Jr.
Happy Birthday to
Louis Gossett Jr.
73 today
Best remembered for his turn as Richard Gere's Gunnery Sergeant in An Officer and a Gentleman, Gossett jr. has been showing his talents on the big and small screens for 50 years. There's a lot of dreck lined up, however I am looking forward to his ensemble part in 4Chosen, the dramatisation of the 1998 shooting of four black basketball players in North Carolina, and the subsequent legal battle for justice. Gossett is also producing.
