Yes, it's true: Barry Levinson's JIMMY HOLLYWOOD to get a Blu-Ray DVD release.

JIMMY HOLLYWOOD on Blu-Ray--http://www.amazon.com/Jimmy-Hollywood-Blu-ray-Joe-Pesci/dp/B003H14DG6/ref=sr_1_55?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1278406667&sr=1-55

No need to discuss this again--suffice to say I was a stand-in for Joe Pesci on this film during its shoot from mid-summer to early fall of 1993.  And, to give cinematographer Peter Sova (who also lensed DONNIE BRASCO and LUCKY NUMBER SLEVIN, among other credits) his due, JIMMY HOLLYWOOD (if well-transferred), should retain the grit-and-gloss feel of its theatrical presentation on Blu-Ray.

Although Joe's blonde wig (for the character of Jimmy Alto) these days reminds one of Phil Spector's hairpiece in the circa-2003 interview clips promoting the new documentary THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY OF PHIL SPECTOR.

BBC coverage of Phil Spector's sentencing.

Phil Spector guilty of second-degree murder of Lana Clarkson.

Just found this (at 2:52 p.m. PDT) on the LOS ANGELES TIMES website:
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2009/04/phil-spector-verdict-lana-clarkson.html

One can't help but wish that Spector's gun-waving and threatening behavior directed at both men and women (rampant psychosis too often overlooked and/or enabled) could have ended a long time ago--and that Lana Clarkson could still be alive today.
