CHARACTER IN FOCUS: Lilly Raines, "In the Line of Fire" (1993)

For the first time in movies, male Secret Service Agents work with women, and that happens in the movie In the Line of Fire (1993), with Frank Horrigan (Clint Eastwood, great in Dirty Harry movies, Gran Torino, Million Dollar Baby, and others) and Lilly Raines (Rene Russo). 
Rene's Lilly Raines in this movie has a double function: as a Secret Service associate and a lover. Even Frank and Ms. Raines had a difficult start together, during the movie their relationship began to concretize when Mr. Horrigan said to himself: "If she looks back, that's means she's interested."

And also during the movie, Frank and Lilly's conversation were all about jazz, work, strategy and mainly romance. For movie critic Roger Ebert, it looked like a real conversation between real people. And thanks to Lilly, she saved Frank from the killer Mitch Leary (John Malkovich), who was thrown up high in the elevator. 
And the ending was like a fairytale ending.... Lilly ended happily with Frank. #verycute. 

Lilly Raines' first impressions about Frank: only enchantment.

According to Ms. Russo, in 2014.... "Well, first of all, he was the only actor I've ever been intimidated by. We were being driven to set together, I don't know why. It usually doesn't happen. But I was in the car, and I just didn't know what to say to him. I was blathering on about nothing. I mean, talk about embarrassing. 'Blah blah blah blah blah' — and he did not say one word. He's wonderful. [But] he did not say one word. 


We made a pact. I eat garlic and he eats garlic. And so we promised each other that we would both eat garlic, so we would cancel each other out, and we wouldn't have to give up our garlic. And then I had to come back for the love scene — because there was a period there where I wasn't shooting, and he was. It was about three weeks or a month. And when I came back, I was pregnant (of Rose Gilroy), and I really couldn't eat garlic. So, yeah, that was a really difficult love scene. I mean, I had morning sickness. I was like, Are you going to hold this together here?" 
Rene Russo: concentration and elegance.

Poster for the movie In the Line of Fire, starring Clint Eastwood, Rene Russo & John Malkovich.

Director: Wolfgang Petersen. 
Producer: Jeff Apple. 
Writer: Jeff Maguire.
Main Cast: 
Clint Eastwood ------ Frank Horrigan
John Malkovich ------ Mitch Leary / John Booth / James Carney
Rene Russo ------ Lilly Raines
Dylan McDermott ---- Al D'Andrea 
Gary Cole ------- Bill Watts
John Mahoney --- Sam Campagna

Rene Russo & Clint Eastwood: great chemistry in scene.
(photo credits: Columbia Pictures/Castle Rock Entertainment)
Release Date: July 9, 1993 (USA) / October 22, 1993 (Brazil)
Running Time: 128 min.
Budget / Box office: US$40 million / US$177 million (box office hit success)
Plot Summary: Frank Horrigan (played by actor/director Clint Eastwood) is a veteran Secret Service agent who is close to retirement. He keeps thinking back to November 22, 1963, when we was a hand-picked agent for President John Kennedy, and, became one of the few to lose a president to an assassin after Kennedy's death. 30 years later, the USA President is the target of former CIA assassin Mitch Leary (John Malkovich, great in Dangerous Liaisons & Con Air), because the assassin felt betrayed by the government. That's the reason for what Leary plans to kill the president.

Later, Mr. Horrigan and his partner, Al D'Andrea (Dylan McDermott, from Hamburger Hill & Steel Magnolias) go to the White House meet the other agents, the director Sam Campagna (John Mahoney, from Frasier); Bill Watts (Gary Cole), a young assistant; and Lilly Raines (Rene Russo), the female agent of the Secret Service team, who is enchanted by Frank, and vice-versa. And that is proved when Mr. Horrigan takes Ms. Raines to the Lincoln Memorial, and both eat an ice cream.  He says to her that he believes that female agents work in the Service simply because the President wishes to court the female vote throughout the country. By the time Lilly walks away, Frank thinks to himself: "If she looks back, that means she's interested."
By the movie goes by, Horrigan suspects that Leary uses lot of false identities, such as Joseph McCrawley, John Booth and James Carney, and the assassin makes lots of victims, including Al.
The ending, in my opinion, is fantastic, and it happens in Los Angeles. Leary, now as James Carney, points his plastic gun at Frank, who tries to save the president, but who ended shot was Mr. Horrigan... and everybody ran away. After that, the killer takes Horrigan to the elevator, up up and away, and what surprised him is that the agent had a bulletproof vest. Agent Raines, with all the agents, witness the scene. 
At the hotel elevator, Leary breaks the glass, and both fight there, and at the end, the killer loses balance until his sudden death, thrown up high in the elevator. And Frank ends the movie happily ever after with Lilly Raines, now acclaimed as a hero (and himself decided to announce his retirement).

Rene Russo: concentration and elegance.

Fun Facts about the movie:
  • Rene Russo and John Malkovich will reunite together 25 years after this movie, in Velvet Buzzsaw, by Dan Gilroy, premiering October 26, on Netflix.
  • Also in a Wolfgang Petersen movie, Rene Russo portrayed the main character's love interest/female lead, both in the movies In the Line of Fire (1993) and Outbreak (1995).
  • Clint Eastwood (Frank Horrigan) and Dylan McDermott (Al D'Andrea)'s characters used Sig Sauer 9mm pistols (Secret Service weapons).
  • Clint is also a professional jazz pianist, that's why he did his own piano scenes in this movie.

Rene Russo on the beach!!! (Rene Russo Fanpage Fashion Special)

Rene in a Bain de Soleil ad, 1976. Sexy 'n' cool for the summer!
(photo credits: Archive photo)

"Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
Whoa, shades of gold display naturally..."
(Amber, 311, 2001).

This post is going to be a cool one and it will be for all you, readers. I love beach, Rene loves beach, and everybody loves beach!! In my opinion, "the beach is fascinating" and also the beach is every people's paradise. 
In Brazil, it might not be summer (but in California it is, and Rene is from California), but most of people go to this wonderful paradise even on weekends, or even the entire month, because July is the holiday vacations' month. 
I chose Rene's pic in Bain de Soleil ad, for a good reason. This wonderful lady is relaxing on a beach chair and on a sunny day. I imagine her in St. Tropez (France) or in Malibu (California). Beside it's sexy and seductive!!! #sexyreneinaction. 


Rene Russo with Tony Spinelli in a Peruvian beach. In the first pic... Ms. Russo shows her seduction to him, and in the second, Rene all eyes on Tony. (photo credits: Francesco Scavullo - Vogue/collage: M.E.Serrano)


This composition above is made of two beach pictures, and both are done by photography master Francesco Scavullo in the Peruvian beach of Santa Maria, in 1976. According to David (@d_ast777 on Twitter), from Moreno Valley, California, he loved both photos (as I loved too), because "each one of the pictures has its own attributes". In the first pic, Rene shows her sexiness, and it shows on her face and body expressions... and the pic on the right, she shows her sublime, majestic beauty, showing that the camera loves her!

Ms. Russo's first pics as a model were on the beach. SOOOOO SEDUCTIVE!
(photo credits: Richard Avedon-Vogue/collage:M.E.Serrano)
The next composition above is also inspired in Saint-Tropez, but the only difference is that these pictures are made by another famous photographer, and his name is Richard Avedon. Like Scavullo, Mr. Avedon is also from New York City (the city that never sleeps), and worked many times with Ms. Rene Russo. 
Back to business. The pic from the left is the most sexy photograph that Rene did in her  entire modeling career. She feels sultry (when many men see this masterpiece, they feel sweaty, because of Rene's sexiness), and even full of desire. 
And in the second pic... Rene looks more sexy, seductive and romantic (because she's between two men on the beach). #love 

In the movies, Rene impressed the audience with The Thomas Crown Affair beach scenes on Martinique...
even Ms. Russo did some beach scenes on Lethal Weapon 4 (1998).
(photo credits: MGM Pictures/collage: M.E.Serrano).

How about Rene's beach scenes in movies? Well... here it goes! She had some beach scenes in her first Lorna Cole scenes on Lethal Weapon 4 (1998), along with Mel Gibson. But we are all focused on Rene's scenes on Thomas Crown Affair (1999), on Martinique, in which most of her scenes were topless. And one of my favorite scenes is the towel scenes, when Rene lassos Pierce and both of them kiss together.


According to Ms. Rene, in 2014, "I was standing in a heavy bathrobe and a g-string underneath, waiting for Pierce, and the double doors open (...) with a beautiful silver tray, two glasses and a bottle of champagne, so... that's who Pierce is. He's so great." OMG, Rene, u make us breathless.... we all love YOU!!

Hope u like it.
Loveuguys.

CHARACTER IN FOCUS: Catherine Banning, "Thomas Crown Affair" (1999)

wardrobe in Thomas Crown Affair. (photo credits: Time & Life Pictures/Getty Images)

As I said on last post, Rene Russo's character on Thomas Crown Affair, Catherine Banning, is her best character done in her entire acting career... In comparison to Faye Dunaway's character in the 1968 original (in the 1968 original, Faye was Vicki, and in the 1999, she was the psychiatrist), I prefer Rene's character better, and there're a lot of reasons... Ms. Banning has lots of sex appeal and makes the audience (specially men) very "all eyes on her", and also the wardrobe (created by Michael Kors specially for Ms. Russo for the movie), in general, is sexy, stylish and it fits her like a glove, in my opinion!

Rene Russo: sexiness and class in scene! (photo credits:
MGM Pictures)
Catherine, in TCA, besides being a dedicated and a sexy insurance investigator, is also smart, driven and alone. She is brought by the NYPD in finding a Monet painting (the cost is US$ 100 million), stolen from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, in New York City, and the masterpiece is stolen by Thomas Crown (portrayed by the talented actor Pierce Brosnan). She suspects of Thomas, but unexpectedly Ms. Banning falls in love with him. 
Rene Russo: eye to eye on Pierce Brosnan. Show us some seduction, Rene!
(photo credits: MGM Pictures)
Although Catherine is very seductive and smart... she also has some weak links. Ms. Banning's emotional fragility shows when Thomas has also a "lover" besides Banning. I'm talking about Anna (played by Esther Cañadas). But between Anna and Catherine... Thomas has better chemistry with Catherine. According to Rene (Russo), in 2014: "Many women ask of him (Pierce Brosnan)... what was he like? Is he cute? Is he dreamy? Yes he is. He's a good kisser. (...) For the love scenes, are always really hard! (laughs)"

And concentrated! (photo credits: MGM Pictures)
And talking about love scenes... the love scenes in Thomas Crown makes the audience entranced. In one of my conversations on Twitter (it happened this week), one of my fans praised TCA and specially Catherine Banning:

"@sscalise88: I love #ThomasCrownAffair! Better than #FiftyShadesofGrey"

"@sscalise88: I Love #ReneRusso in The Thomas Crown Affair & I Agree with You @mariaemma16 ! Rene Russo was Truly #Chic ! #Fashion was Great In the #Film & Her #Style was Impeccable! Such an Artistic Film! Hey All YOU Twitter Friends... Who Else Loved #TheThomasCrownAffair #ThomasCrownAffair " (source: Twitter, 26/6/18).  

Hope u loved it!

Director: John McTiernan (known by Die Hard & The Hunt for Red October).
Producers: Michael Tadross, Pierce Brosnan & Beau St. Clair.
Written by: Alan Trustman, Leslie Dixon & Kurt Wimmer.
Main Cast: 
Pierce Brosnan -------- Thomas Crown 
Rene Russo ----------- Catherine Olds Banning
Denis Leary ------------ Detective Michael McCann
Faye Dunaway ------- Thomas' psychiatrist
Esther Cañadas ------ Anna Tyrol Knutzhorn
Fritz Weaver ---------- John Reynolds
Frankie Faison ------- Detective Parretti

Pierce Brosnan, all eyes on Rene Russo: "Do you wanna dance or DO YOU WANNA DANCE?"
(photo credits: MGM Pictures)
Release Date: August 6, 1999 (USA) / September 3, 1999 (Brazil)
Running Time: 113 min. 
Budget / Box office: $48 million / $124.3 million (box office success).
Plot summary: Based on the 1968 movie of the same name. In the remake, Thomas Crown (Pierce Brosnan, great in Mrs. Doubtfire & 007 movies), a self-made billionaire, is bored of everything he desires, but he's irresistible to women. Therefore, Thomas has a hobby - stealing art masterpieces.
After the theft of a Monet painting (stolen by Thomas Crown), the only person who suspects Crown is Catherine Olds Banning (Rene Russo), a sexy insurance investigator, but smart, driven and alone. Her job: get the painting back to the MET Museum, in New York City.
 But in the middle of the investigation, Catherine falls in love with Thomas in an unexpected way. The romance happens in three moments: a black and white ball, a gliding flight and two days in Martinique (France).
Back in Manhattan, Catherine thinks she has reason to be jealous, so when he suggests they go off together, she hesitates... because the insurance investigator also suspects that there's another woman in Thomas' life, Anna (Esther Cañadas), which makes Ms. Banning very unsure to trust Crown. 
The ending is when Catherine, shaken and fallen apart, is on plane to Britain. A hand reaches through the seats from behind her and gives her a handkerchief while using a voice that doesn't quite sound right. She looks in the seat behind her to find Crown. She leaps at him, furious at his actions. "Did you set this up?" shouts Catherine to Thomas, and her screams were listened by the stewardess.
And both kissed each other. While Ms.Banning hugs Mr. Crown, she whispers, in a seductive way, in his ear: "If you pull a stunt like that again... I'll break both your arms!"

Fun Facts about the movie:
  • There are several changes comparing the remake from the 1968 original (directed by Norman Jewison), most notable for the amount of intimacy and nudity scenes between Catherine (Rene Russo) & Thomas Crown (Pierce Brosnan).
  • Rene Russo's clothes were entirely done by Michael Kors for the Celine collection. Along with her hairdo used in the movie, Rene's Catherine Banning was her best character done in her entire acting career.
  • Rene Russo did her first nude scenes of her career in Thomas Crown Affair.  
  • First of two remakes John McTiernan did from Norman Jewison movies. The other movie was Rollerball (2002), starring Rebecca Romjin, Jean Reno & rapper LL Cool J.
  • When Catherine (Rene Russo) is at Martinique (France), she drapes a white towel around her breasts... and when she "lassos" her towel around Thomas' neck took sixteen takes to get it just right. Weights were added to the towel to get it to work correctly.
  • And in Rene's recent interviews on TV, many of the interviewers ask of... Thomas Crown Affair. According to Rene (Russo): "Many women ask of him (Pierce Brosnan)... what was he like? Is he cute? Is he dreamy? Yes he is. He's a good kisser. (...) For the love scenes, are always really hard! (laughs)" (see "Rene's Valentine's Day Special" post)

RENE RUSSO FANPAGE PRESENTS: Dan Gilroy Special!!!

Dan Gilroy, 2017. (photo credits: Jay L. Clendenin/Getty Images)

Daniel Christopher Gilroy, known as Dan Gilroy, was born in June 24, 1959, in Santa Monica, California (USA). He is son of Frank D. Gilroy (Pullitzer-prize winning dramatist) and Ruth Dorothy Gaydos (sculptor & writer)... also brother of Tony Gilroy (director and producer, known for Michael Clayton and The Bourne Legacy), and John Gilroy (his twin brother, John is a film editor). Dan's main inspiration was his dad: When Dan was a young boy, he saw his father writing and it simplified his difficulties of becoming a writer.

Even born in Santa Monica, Dan grew up in Washingtonville, New York, on Orange County. There he attended Washingtonville High School, and in 1981, he graduated from Darthmouth College (New Hampshire), with a degree in English literature.

His screenwriting career began with Freejack (1992), directed by Geoff Murphy, and starring her future and now wife, the lovely Rene Russo (and both have a beautiful daughter, Rose, born in August 31, 1993). Dan and Rene will marry 2 months later after the film premiere. After that, in 1994, Dan will also write Chasers (1994), directed by Dennis Hopper (known for Blue Velvet, Waterworld, Speed and many others), and starring Tom Berenger (Rene worked with Tom in Major League, in 1989, but also great in Somebody's Watching over Me, Betrayed, and Platoon). 

Way years later, Dan also write Two for the Money (2005), The Fall (2006), Real Steel (2011), The Bourne Legacy (2012) (his brother Tony directed the movie), and recently, Kong: Skull Island (2017). 

Rene & Dan Gilroy, in Nightcrawler premiere, 2014. (photo credits: Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images)

Now to his directing career... His directing debut was Nightcrawler (2014), starring Rene Russo, Jake Gyllenhaal and Riz Ahmed. Dan's inspiration: a photo-book called Naked City, a photo collection taken by American-Hungarian photographer Weegee about 1940s New York City's residents at night. The movie was well received by the public and critics.

Last year, he directed Roman J. Israel, Esq. (2017), with Denzel Washington and Colin Farrell. Gilroy conceived of Roman J. Israel after doing extensive research about the 1960s where many Americans have staunchly protested and advocated certain individual and group rights. With Nightcrawler and Roman J. Israel, Esq., Dan proved he has lots of talent. 

This year, he will direct and write Velvet Buzzsaw (2018). In recent interviews, Dan said it was inspired by The Player (1992), by Robert Altman. And it also reunites Rene Russo, Jake Gyllenhaal and John Malkovich (Rene and John Malkovich worked together 25 years ago, in the movie In the Line of Fire, in 1993). We are so excited!

Hope u like it. 
Love u guys!

RENE RUSSO FANPAGE'S VALENTINE'S DAY SPECIAL!!!

Rene's family moments in the Academy Awards: along with her husband, Dan Gilroy (left),
and along with Dan and her daughter Rose Gilroy (right). (photo: Getty Images).
While in United States Valentine's Day is celebrated on February 14, in Brazil, this day is celebrated on June 12 (tomorrow).
As I said on the end of part 2 of her bio, since 1992, Rene is happily married to Dan Gilroy, and both have a beautiful daughter, Rose Gilroy, who pursues modeling since 2016. 
And what about in movies? I selected five romantic opposites with whom Rene she played: Mel Gibson, Pierce Brosnan, Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman & last but not least, Jake Gyllenhaal. 

Mel Gibson, Pierce Brosnan, Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman and Jake Gyllenhaal:
the 5 lucky men of the Valentine's Day Special. (collage: M.E.Serrano)

1- Mel Gibson (Lethal Weapon 3, Lethal Weapon 4 & Ransom)

Rene Russo and Mel Gibson, 1992. (photo credits: David McGough/Getty Images)

Mel Gibson is well known for doing Mad Max & Lethal Weapon franchises, Conspiracy Theory, and many others. And what's Rene Russo got to do with this story? Well, here it goes. Most of the movies Rene starred were next to Mel Gibson (3 times in total). In Lethal Weapon 3 (1992), while Lorna (Russo) and Riggs (Gibson) were comparing scars, they share a kiss together, and in Lethal Weapon 4 (1998), they work again together, now their characters are wife and husband.
But between Lethal Weapon movies, they worked together again in Ransom (1996), Mel and Rene were Tom and Kate Mullen, respectively. Both have to face their son's kidnapping, done by Jimmy Shaker (Gary Sinise, great in Apollo 13 and CSI NY)
2- Pierce Brosnan (Thomas Crown Affair)

Rene Russo and Pierce Brosnan, 1999. (photo credits: Ronald Simmoneit/Getty Images)
Pierce Brosnan is best known as roles as Mrs. Doubtfire, some 007 movies and... Thomas Crown Affair, along with Rene Russo. In a People magazine article, according to Pierce, "Rene is the only woman of the summer in my book. She does it in such a gorgeous, sensuous, sexy way.”  
And in Rene's recent interviews on TV, many of the interviewers ask of... Thomas Crown Affair. According to Rene: "Many women ask of him... what was he like? Is he cute? Is he dreamy? Yes he is. He's a good kisser. (...) For the love scenes, are always really hard! (laughs)" 

3- Robert De Niro (The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle, Showtime & The Intern).

HOW CUTE! (photo credits: Time & Life Pictures)
Another actor who worked most times with Rene was Robert de Niro, great in many movies, such as Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, Cape Fear remake, Casino and many others. But with Rene... he worked three times, two as a romantic opposite: Showtime and recently, The Intern (The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle doesn't count... even De Niro worked together with her, Rene's romantic opposite was Jason Alexander, great in series as Seinfeld, and in movies such as Pretty Woman, The Paper and Shallow Hal).
In Showtime, De Niro plays Mitch, while Russo plays Chase, a TV producer (in the end there are hints of romance between both of them), and in The Intern, Robert plays Ben (a widow), and Rene plays Fiona (the massagist). In my opinion, the best part is when Fiona appears massaging Ben's back... so relaxing...
In the end of The Intern, Ben and Fiona ended together. 

4- Dustin Hoffman (Outbreak)

Dustin Hoffman is best known on Tootsie, Rain Man (he won an Academy Award), Kramer vs. Kramer, The Graduate and many others. Now, in Outbreak, Hoffman portrays Sam Daniels, Robby's ex-husband (Robby is portrayed by Russo). Sam and Robby reconcile when he and Salt (Cuba Gooding Jr.) saved her from Ebola disease. 

5-Jake Gyllenhaal (Nightcrawler & Velvet Buzzsaw)

Jake and Rene: perfect chemistry in scene. (photo credits: StarTraks Photo)
And finally, last but not least: Jake Gyllenhaal. Jake is one of the actors with most popular audience, specially youngsters (and girls too). He is great in Donnie Darko, Brokeback Mountain, Jarhead, Southpaw... and Nightcrawler. 
Like I said on the Nightcrawler post weeks ago, Rene Russo and Jake Gyllenhaal have such chemistry in Dan Gilroy's debut (Jake was Lou, Rene was Nina). Both were great... and the public (specially Rene and Jake fans) questioned themselves... Why Jake and Rene were forgotten on the Golden Globes & the Academy Awards? (...) Jake should have received something, he should have received a nomination! 
And this year, Rene and Jake are working again together, in Velvet Buzzsaw, by Dan Gilroy. Jake plays Morf Vandewalt, and Rene, Rhodora Haze! We're excited for both working together! 


Other Rene's romantic pairings...

Along with these five, Rene also worked with Kevin Costner (Tin Cup, 1996),  Clint Eastwood (In the Line of Fire, 1993), John Travolta (Get Shorty, 1995), Emilio Estevez (Freejack, 1992), Tom Berenger (Major League, 1989), Jim Belushi (Mr. Destiny, 1990), Dennis Quaid (Yours Mine and Ours, 2005), and many others!

Wish u everybody a Happy Valentine's day!

Hope u like it!
love u guys.
