  • Alex Rocco: A Mob Murder, a Boston Gang War, and Leaving Winter Hill for the Corleones

    Alex Rocco: A Mob Murder, a Boston Gang War, and Leaving Winter Hill for the Corleones
    Aug 18 2025
    Organized crime. A brutal assault that kicked off a gang war. Car bombs. The brazen assassination of a mob boss in broad daylight. These things all happened in Francis Ford Coppola’s groundbreaking film The Godfather – but first they happened in the real life of Alex Rocco, one-time Boston gang member turned Hollywood character actor whose star turn as Moe Greene in the classic mobster epic is one of the most improbable career shifts in movie history.

  • Harrison Ford: Smashing Bottles, Slinging Weed, and Partying with the Stones

    Harrison Ford: Smashing Bottles, Slinging Weed, and Partying with the Stones
    Aug 11 2025
    If someone had told Harrison Ford the odds early on, about his chances of making it as an actor in Hollywood, he may have given up. But he wasn’t an odds kinda guy. He was a guy who did what he had to do to make it. Sometimes that meant swinging a hammer and working as a carpenter on the houses of James Caan and Joan Didion. Other times he found work touring with the Doors as the band’s photographer. He even dealt a little weed on the side to people like Michelle Phillips of the Mamas and the Papas. But whether he was pulling focus on an elusive Jim Morrison, tearing ass through Petaluma in an old Chevy, or navigating a hunk of junk through an asteroid field, never tell him the odds. Harrison Ford made his own luck.

  • Joan Crawford: Stag Films, Dead Presidents, and No Wire Hangers

    Joan Crawford: Stag Films, Dead Presidents, and No Wire Hangers
    Aug 4 2025
    Joan Crawford once threatened the director of the FBI when she wanted an old stag film destroyed. She accepted an Oscar that wasn’t hers for the sole purpose to get revenge on her co-star. She wrote her daughter out of her will, before she knew the kid was about to permanently ruin her legacy. But how did she wind up at a party with Richard Nixon, J. Edgar Hoover, and Lyndon Johnson – on the eve of the Kennedy assassination? And why did some say the answer to that question was murder?

    Robert Downey Jr.: Running on Empty, Rock Bottom, and Ironclad Resolve
    Jul 28 2025
    The man who would be Iron Man was once an unreliable and uninsurable actor who lived many years at the bottom in a haze of drugs and alcohol.
