Filmmaking legends Paul Thomas Anderson and Jonathan Demme pay tribute to Robert Downey Sr.’s cult classic Greaser’s Palace.
Next, Andrew Napier’s short film, Grandma’s Not a Toaster, where a whiskey-guzzling mother-to-be aims to enlist her neurotic brother in attempt to thieve from their ailing grandmother’s fortune.

"I can crawl again!" The first time I saw this, in 1973, I was recovering from a fractured ankle and my right foot was in a cast. While hobbling down Broadway to see Greaser's Palace at a theater near 105th Street, one of my crutches broke.

njfisher1, I think you would have to be a “filmie” as some call themselves foodies today. We used to have midnight movies at the Uniondale mini cinema and even regular showings of the coolest, most offbeat movies.

I haven't seen 'Greaser's Palace' yet, but one of the things that striked me is how much this insanely comic horse scene made me think in some of the humor presented in the recent 'P'tit Quinquin,' wich includes a horse scene almost as strange; although I wouldn't know at all if Dumont even watched anything from Robert Downey Sr., I now know that I will.

"This how I think alot of films are made today. Get rich investors and say movie is gonna cost 50 million. Only spend 25 million and pocket the rest. With Hollywood accounting it's impossible to prove actual costs and services rendered. Uwe Boll videogame adaptation failure actually served as a good business model because of the tax write-offs involved. It was believed they intentionally failed because they're more profitable as failures than they would be as modest successes. I've heard of movies laundering money by using dirty money (money earned on the black market) to buy tickets at the box office, which turns it into clean revenue." "After raising tens of millions of dollars in funding, Foodfight! had a troubled and much delayed production. The production was insured by Fireman's Fund Insurance Company. The film was originally scheduled for a Christmas 2003 theatrical release; however, this failed to materialize, and later planned release dates were also missed. By September 2011, after the producers defaulted on a loan, creditors auctioned off the film's assets and all associated rights to Lionsgate. " "Malaysia to recover $107.3 million after settling 1MDB case against 'Wolf of Wall Street' producer. Riza, the co-founder of Red Granite Pictures, received $248 million misappropriated from state fund 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB). U.S. and Malaysian authorities say a total of about $4.5 billion was taken from 1MDB - an institution co-founded in 2009 by then-premier Najib. The case has also led to scrutiny of Goldman Sachs, which Malaysia has accused of misleading investors over bond sales totaling $6.5 billion that the bank helped raise for 1MDB. Three units of the bank have pleaded not guilty." "Transylvania 6-5000 (1985 film) was financed by Dow Chemical Company, a company rarely associated with film making. Yugoslav law at the time prevented the company from repatriating funds that it had accumulated in the Yugoslav dinar. To free these frozen funds, Dow decided to use them to pay for a film production inside the country." "Battlefield Earth had a reported budget of 75 million but was in fact made for 44 million with the difference going straight into the producer's pocket." "DEA says Limelight Films was used to launder hundreds of thousands of dollars of drug money. The chairman of Limelight is Kiera Chaplin, the granddaughter of Charlie Chaplin. Alexandre De Basseville, 36, of Switzerland and Los Angeles, an executive board member of ADB Swiss S.A., which owns the Los Angeles-based Limelight Films Inc., was sentenced 1/4/2007 by U.S. District Judge Gerald Bruce Lee. The judge also ordered him to forfeit $528,500 after pleading guilty to conspiracy to commit money laundering and conspiracy to distribute MDMA, or Ecstasy."

Grandma's not a toaster. Great premise, creative character POV but the acting ruins it for me.

I honestly think the acting makes it 10 times better. It fits the whole absurd vibe.

Sounds like a wannabe El Topo, which came two years before Palace.

I've always read this film as sort of an El Topo satire.
