Two years after tanking in Toronto, John Turturro‘s Romance and Cigarettes, a New York working-class karoake musical that isn’t all that bad, will open at Manhattan’s Film Forum on September 7th. The distributor is Turturro himself, and the stay at the Houston Street megaplex is being described by the Hollywood Reporter‘s Gregg Goldstein as “open-ended.” It’s not a total wipeout. James Gandolfini‘s first singing scene and Chris Walken‘s dancing-with-the-cops number have a certain something-or-other.
