Karate in the Garage

The Devil Made Me Do It continues with what we've determined is a little seen movie that is the YOUNGEST of the movies covered this month: THE ORDER from Brian Helgeland, who wrote and directed this in 2003.

This one reunites three actors from Helgeland's 2001 A Knight's Tale: Heath Ledger, Shannyn Sossamon, and Mark Addy. Joining that trio is Benno Fuhrmann and the legend Peter Weller. From IMDB: A young priest is sent to Rome to investigate the troubling death of the head of his order.

WHILE IT'S TRUE THE WGA STRIKE IS OVER, AND EVEN IF SAG GETS THEIR'S TOGETHER, WORKERS AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE GOING TO BE STRUGGLING FOR A WHILE. THE OVERWHELMING BURDEN OF PUTTING FOOD ON THE TABLE AND A ROOF OVER ONE'S HEAD DOESN'T END THE INSTANT THE DEALS ARE RATIFIED.

IT COULD BE MONTHS BEFORE PRODUCTIONS GET UP TO SPEED AGAIN. THAT LEADS RIGHT INTO THE INDUSTRY'S USUAL WINTER/HOLIDAY HIATUS. WILL THAT BE DIFFERENT THIS YEAR? WHO KNOWS. BUT EVEN IF THEY WORK THROUGH THAT USUAL BREAK, MANY FAMILIES ARE GOING TO NEED ASSISTANCE. THIS IS WHERE YOU CAN HELP.
