Synopsis:
An 8-year labor of love for producer Dean Zanuck (road to Perdition), Get Low is directed by Academy Award winner Aaron Schneider, and is written by Chris Provenzano (Mad Men) and C. Gaby Mitchell (Blood Diamond). “Get Low” is a magical and moving blend of folk tale, fable and real-life legend. Spun in the Southern storytelling tradition, it is about the mysterious 1930s Tennessee hermit who famously threw his own rollicking funeral party . . . while he was still alive. Academy Award winner Robert Duvall, Golden Globe winner Bill Murray, Academy Award winner Sissy Spacek and Lucas Black form an ensemble of unforgettable characters who bring to life the surprising last act of Felix Bush, a life-long maverick and misfit who has been nearly swallowed up by the power of his town’s sinister myths about him – until he sets out to make a shocking confession in front of his own memorial service. The result is a comic, poignant, at times haunting tale about the snowballing nature of secrets, stories, heartbreak and the desire for redemption.Get Low is inspired by the true story of Felix “Bush” Breazeale, who attracted national attention and the largest crowd to assemble up to that date when he threw himself a living funeral party in Roane County, Tennessee. For years, townsfolk have been terrified of the backwoods recluse known as Felix Bush (Robert Duvall). People say he’s done all manner of unspeakable things and they avoid him like the plague. Then, one day, Felix rides to town with a shotgun and a wad of cash, saying he wants to buy a funeral. It’s not your usual funeral for the dead Felix wants. On the contrary, he wants a “living funeral,” in which anyone who ever had heard a story about him will come to tell it, while he takes it all in. Sensing a big payday in the offing, fast-talking funeral home owner Frank Quinn (Bill Murray) enlists his gentlemanly young apprentice, Buddy Robinson (Lucas Black), to win over Felix’s business. Buddy is no stranger to Felix’s dark reputation, but what he discovers is that behind Felix’s surreal plan lies a very real and long-held secret that must get out. As the funeral approaches, the mystery– which involves the widow Mattie Darrow (Sissy Spacek), the only person in town who ever got close to Felix, and the Illinois preacher Charlie Jackson (Bill Cobbs), who refuses to speak at his former friend’s funeral – only deepens.

Mercedes Benz Polo Challenge 2010
Posted on | July 27, 2010


Every summer the Mercedes Benz Bridgehampton Polo draws a crowd of polo watching lovers, major sponsors, and now….those who love to mingle and meet anyone single under the tent. It’s even drawn reality stars like Kourtney Khardasian and her baby daddy Scott Disick to see whats hot on the field and under the tent. This season, I am filming my first episode for my new show on Plum T.V. , where I take you behind the hedges and through the luxurious and incredible landscapes, and also to some of the best fishing sceneries in the world. While the polo goers were chatting up a storm, I was interviewing and sweating in my vintage Halston. Some say the rich & famous come here to vacation only because rich gets richer. But its the magical light and sunset that makes you stop your car that lures us all back. Congratulations to all the polo players, sponsors, men and women who really dress to make polo what it is today. I was there when the first match launched. There were 100 of us there at that time, now there are thousands.
