HBO Preps Doc on Hollywood Hits and Misses

From PB.com: June 8, 2006 AFI: Participating in "AFI Life Achievement Award - A Tribute to Sean Connery". 2006: Sir Sean Connery34th AFI Life Achievement Award Sir Sean Connery has been selected by the American Film Institute's Board of Trustees to receive the 34th AFI Life Achievement Award, the highest honor for a career in film. "Sir Sean Connery is an international film icon. Though best remembered for creating one of the great film heroes of all time, his talents transcend typecasting, and his body of work not only stands the test of time, but illuminates a career more extraordinary than James Bond himself. Sir Sean is an artist of the highest order, and AFI is honored to present him with its 34th Life Achievement Award." The award will be presented to Connery at a gala tribute in Los Angeles on June 8, 2006. USA Network will broadcast the 34th AFI Life Achievement Award tribute later in June.

Sacremento BeeOn Thursday, there are a couple of cable shows worth noting. The first is HBO's 90-minute documentary "Boffo! Tinseltown's Bombs and Blockbusters" (at 9), a thoroughly entertaining look at some of Hollywood's biggest movie hits and misses. It runs through stories of success and failure with a certain randomness, which also generally defines success and failure in the movie business. The industry figured "Jaws" and "Titanic" would be certain losers, and that "Howard the Duck" was "can't miss," though it's hard to see why. The special is meant to commemorate Variety's 100th anniversary and is based on a book by Variety Editor in Chief Peter Bart called "Boffo: How I Learned To Love the Blockbuster and Fear the Bomb." But it's mostly about the capriciousness of moviemaking, and of all the things that can go wrong, including bad writing, acting, directing, editing and scheduling, not to mention the thousand possible bad decisions by the studio. Among the many people interviewed for the special are Richard Dreyfuss, Morgan Freeman, Peter Bogdanovich, Charlize Theron, Pierce Brosnan and George Clooney, who calls making a successful movie "controlled luck."

Critic's TV picks for Thursday
By Gail Pennington THE ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH 06/29/2006
Tops of the night
'BOFFO! Tinseltown's Bombs and Blockbusters'
8 p.m. on HBO
HBO celebrates Variety magazine's 100 birthday with this look at Hollywood's biggest smashes - and most memorable misses.
Variety editor-in-chief Peter Bart did hard time in the movie biz as an executive, and it is his recent book, "Boffo: How I Learned to Love the Blockbuster and Fear the Bomb," that serves as a starting point for this special.
Expect plenty of clips, both and good and bad, as well as insider interviews from a roster that includes George Clooney, Charlize Theron, Steven Spielberg, Pierce Brosnan, Danny DeVito, Sydney Pollack and Peter Bogdanovich.
For those of you who still can't comprehend that "Howard the Duck" died in the water; for the faithful who refuse to believe that "Ishtar" wasn't a work of pure cinematic genius; for the diehards who own the special-edition editor's cut of "Clan of the Cave Bear," well, maybe this will help provide a bit of perspective.
