I was thrown a few weeks ago when I read a statement from Freestyle Releasing’s publicist that My One and Only (8.21) that it’s based on the life and times of George Hamilton ( Love at First Bite, Godfather III, Viva Maria, A Thunder of Drums). It’s actually about Hamilton’s indefatigable gold-digging mom, Ann Devereaux (Renee Zellweger) and blah, blah. Zellweger is a problem but let’s keep an open mind until next week’s premiere screening. The young Hamilton is played by Logan Lerman , and Mark Rendall plays his red-haired brother Robbie. Hamilton exec produced, Richard Loncraine directed and Blame It On Rio ‘s Charlie Peters wrote the screenplay.
