Get Shorty Movie
I talked about the Get Shorty TV Series (2017-2019) the other day.
Today, let’s take a quick look at the movie Get Shorty (1995).
Both written by my favorite crime writer Elmore Leonard.
Both with the same premise – but all the characters have different names.
IMDB describes the movie like so: “A mobster travels to Hollywood to collect a debt and discovers that the movie business is much the same as his current job.”
A fine, star-studded cast – John Travolta, Gene Hackman, Rene Russo, Danny DeVito, Dennis Farina, Delroy Lindo, and James Gandolfini four years before The Sopranos.

Saw the movie a dozen or so time – but not for a while – so I’ll be trying to watch it again soon.

and I approve this message.
Warner Books published Born to Be Wild in 1992 & it still sells every day at Amazon & Kindle. True story about certain members of the Warlocks motorcycle gang.
The story takes 21 years to play out – with many twists & turns – an amalgam of Sons of Anarchy & Breaking Bad – but these outlaw bikers make the Sons look like Cub Scouts.
