Music is at the core of two new Specialty features making their theatrical bows this weekend, albeit from rather different ends of the spectrum. XLrator Media will open Jimi: All Is By My Side focusing on the artist’s life in London in nearly three dozen theaters, while Samuel Goldwyn Films will bow faith-centered The Song in over 300 theaters, the biggest number of runs for a limited release newcomer this week. Magnolia Pictures will take thriller The Two Faces Of January starring Viggo Mortensen, Kirsten Dunst and Oscar Isaac to an initial half-dozen locations in the wake of its VOD release late last month and CBS Films is targeting the same number of runs for its Cannes ’14 feature Pride. Factory 25 is opening its art meets goth-rap thriller Hellaware and Cinema Libre will debut a former Swiss foreign-language Oscar contender The Little Bedroom in exclusive New York runs.

Actor Bobby Spillane has died after falling from a sixth floor window in New York. The star, who appeared in TV shows including "Law & Order", is said to have fallen to his death from a Manhattan building on Saturday, July 10. He was 45 years old.
There is no foul play suspected, according to TMZ.com. Spillane's father was legendary mobster Mickey Spillane, who was gunned down in 1977.
Robert Spillane reportedly had his arm in a sling and was leaning against a screen on a partially open window when he fell, said relatives. "The screen gave out," said his uncle Jim McManus as quoted by the Guardian. "He only had one arm and he went out with the screen." McManus described his nephew's death as a "terribly sad accident".

Actor Robert 'Bobby' Spillane in fatal plunge from sixth-floor New York apartment
The actor son of infamous New York mobster Mickey Spillane has fallen to his death from a sixth-floor Manhattan apartment after apparently leaning out of a window to call to his brother on the street below.
Robert "Bobby" Spillane, who had roles in television series such as NYPD Blue and Law & Order, fell from his home in the Hell's Kitchen area of the city yesterday morning, said police.
Spillane's Irish-American father was known as the last "gentleman gangster" before he was shot dead in 1977 by rivals in the Westies gang who ran rackets for decades throughout New York. After his murder, the Westies became dominated by more violent gangsters.

There is a big chance that Ciaran Hinds ends up playing Aberforth Dumbledore in "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows". Reporting the matter was The Leaky Cauldron, which claimed that the actor's representatives have expressed expectations and hopes of Hinds landing the role of this helpful Order of the Phoenix member.
If 56-year-old Hinds indeed nabs this Albus Dumbledore's brother, he will replace Jim McManus, who appeared briefly as Aberforth in "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix". While breaking out this casting possibility to the surface, The Leaky Cauldron still noted that Warner Bros. have yet to give any comment on the story.
Ciaran Hinds is an Ifta-winning actor. He has appeared in a number of feature films, including "Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life", "Miami Vice", "The Nativity Story" and "There Will Be Blood". He recently lent his voice to Botticelli for "The Tale of...

Reports are emerging today that representatives for Ciaran Hinds (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001354/) (The Tale of Despereaux, There Will Be Blood, Calendar Girls) have 'expectations and hopes' that he will play Aberforth Dumbledore in Deathly Hallows. Warner Brothers have yet to comment on this casting. Jim McManus previously (http://www.snitchseeker.com/harry-potter-news/jim-mcmanus-cast-aberforth-dumbledore-34424/) played the role in Order of the Phoenix.

In his dazzling poker book Positively Fifth Street, which chronicled a grisly piece of Las Vegas history alongside his own unlikely run in the 2000 World Series Of Poker, Jim McManus describes a poker tournament as "four days of intense boredom interrupted by brief moments of sheer terror." Poker movies have the advantage of cutting straight to the terror, but Rounders excepted, nearly all of them are intensely boring. If the stakes are clear and the audience has enough investment in the characters, every turn of the cards can be heart-stopping. But if too many more movies like the abysmal Deal come along, making the final table at a poker tournament is going to seem as exciting to the layman as an afternoon in line at the Dmv. Owing much to the grizzled mentor/naïve student dynamic in The Color Of Money and Hard Eight, Burt Reynolds and Reaper's Bret...
