US columnists Marilyn Beck and Stacy
Jenel Smith have posted information on the characters featured
in the George Clooney directorial debut Confessions Of A Dangerous
Mind.
"Confessions of a Dangerous Mind" will certainly
have some weird elements. This is the picture George Clooney's
directing with Sam Rockwell playing former "Gong Show"
producer/host Chuck Barris, who claims he led a double life
as a CIA hitman. Julia Roberts and Drew Barrymore are doing
turns in the flick, as is Clooney himself. Brad Pitt's doing
a cameo as a contestant in a "Gong Show"-type program.
Now we hear additional show contestants are being cast, including
an obese tap-dancer who taps especially loud because of his
or her weight, but is not very good. And they've been looking
for a folk song-singing Chinese woman who'll sport painted-on
eyebrows ala Joan Crawford and sing in a depressing monotone.
For those of you who remember "The Gong Show," all
that probably brings back bad memories."

Confessions Of A Dangerous mind is the directorial debut of
George Clooney, based on the book by Chuck Barris. Chuck Barris,
for those who don't know, is the American game show impressario
behind The Gong Show, The Newlywed Show as well as The Dating
Game amongst many others.
Barris penned the book Confessions of a Dangerous Mind: An
Unauthorised Biography, strangely entitled as it is mainly
ficticious. The film will be based around the secret life
Barris, including the time he spent as CIA assassin "Sunny
Sixkiller", making hits while under the guise of chaperoning
the game show contestants who have won vacation prizes. The
screenplay is by none other than Being John Malkovich scribe
Charlie Kaufman.
In the lead role is Sam Rockwell, with Clooney playing the
role of Jim Byrd, the CIA agent who recruits Barris. Supporting
are Julia Roberts and Drew Barrymore and we're promised cameos
from producer Jerry Weintraub (Oceans Eleven) as an ABC bigwig
plus Brad Pitt and Matt Damon who will play Gong Show contestants
while child star Fred Savage will appear as a bellhop.
Filming kicked off on the movie back on January 15th in Montreal,
Canada with a budget of $35 million. The release date has
been set as December 27th 2002 for New York and Los Angeles
with a wide release penciled in for mid January 2003.
