American Hustle – The Movie

Every now and then, you realize what a small world it is and how we are all interconnected on this small planet.

This post is simply to congratulate actress Becki Dennis Buchman for her role in the movie American Hustle, which is released early in Boston today (December 19, 2013) and tomorrow (FRIDAY) in theatres across the country.

Here’s the iMDB synopsis for those unfamiliar with the film:

“A fictional film set in the alluring world of one of the most stunning scandals to rock our nation, American Hustle tells the story of brilliant con man Irving Rosenfeld (Christian Bale), who along with his equally cunning and seductive British partner Sydney Prosser (Amy Adams) is forced to work for a wild FBI agent Richie DiMaso (Bradley Cooper). DiMaso pushes them into a world of Jersey powerbrokers and mafia that’s as dangerous as it is enchanting. Jeremy Renner is Carmine Polito, the passionate, volatile, New Jersey political operator caught between the con-artists and Feds. Irving’s unpredictable wife Rosalyn (Jennifer Lawrence) could be the one to pull the thread that brings the entire world crashing down. Written by Sony Pictures Entertainment“

You can catch Becki’s part about halfway through the movie.  She is pushing a kid in a stroller while talking to Amy Adams.

Anyway, the reason I wanted to point this out, is that I originally met Becki during her acting role in my music video The Man Behind The Mask which was also shot in the Boston area!  (See, small world)

Here’s that video, by-the-way, in case you missed it back in 2010:

Great job, Becki, for landing a role in a major Hollywood production!
