Boulevard (Cinema Review)

July 19, 2015 By Tim Isaac 1 Comment

Starring: Robin Williams, Roberto Aguire, Kathy Baker, Bob Odernkirk
Director: Dito Montiel
Running Time: 88 mins
Certificate: R
Release Date: July 10th 2015 (US), April 8th 2016 (UK)

After Robin Williams’ untimely death, it looked for a while like we might not see his final movie beyond festival and other limited screenings. Despite starring the much-loved actor, distributors seemed to be shying away from it. However now the movie has arrived and you can see why in the immediate aftermath of Williams’ demise distributors might have had pause, as in it Robin plays a quiet and melancholic character in a movie that has an air of sadness running right through it.

Robin Williams & Roberto Aguire Up For Dito Montiel’s Boulevard

January 10, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

robin-williamsIt looks like Robin Williams is going serious again as Variety reports that he is set to star alongside Roberto Aguire in Dito Montiel’s (A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints) planned new movie Boulevard.

The movie is described as an intimate drama about marriage and lies, Williams will play Nolan Mack, a devoted husband in a marriage of convenience until a run-in with a guarded young man forces Nolan to come to terms with his own secrets. Quite what those secrets are haven’t been revealed (the plot description does give off a potentially gay vibe, but it could easily be about something else). Roberto Aguire will play Leo, the young man.

Montiel will direct from a screenplay by Douglas Soesbe. It’s not clear when it might shoot.
