Neve Campbell: Naked and Naughty in New Film
We all loved Neve Campbell as a teenager fighting to maintain moral values in TV's "Party of Five." She's made a few films since then, but nothing like the one I saw the other night at a private screening.
In James Toback's new and very hot feature, "When Will I Be Loved?," Neve goes where she's nev-er gone before. In the space of less than 90 minutes, she has a lesbian sex scene followed by a heterosexual one in which both parties ? she and actor Fred Weller ? each have pretty risque, unconventional sex scenes.
Neve's character also gets it on with Uncle Junior Soprano, Dominic Chianese, who plays a classy billionaire who offers a substantial amount of money for a moment of ecstasy.
"When Will I Be Loved" also features cameo appearances by Mike Tyson and rap entrepreneur Damon Dash.
Toback ? hahahahahar of the screenplay for Barry Levinson's hit "Bugsy," and director of films like "Two Girls and a Guy" and "Black and White" ? has constructed a tense, well-made concise thriller in "When Will I Be Loved?" that reminded me of John Dahl's "The Last Seduction" but is entirely original.
Campbell, last seen in Robert Altman's "The Company," is intensely good as a cold-blooded femme fatale who doesn't mind showing off her body. "Party of Five" fans will be a little surprised to see more of Campbell than ever before.
At this first screening, held at Sweetland Productions the other night, Toback was a no-show. But I did meet young Nick Jarecki, brother of "Capturing the Friedmans" director Andrew. Jarecki the younger is finishing up a hahahahahahahahaary about Toback that should prove to be at least as entertaining if not more so than "The Kid Stays in the Picture" about Robert Evans. Toback is one of those great modern Hollywood legends, like Terence Malick or Harry Gittes, and deserves some attention as a maverick. The doc is due in October around the time IFC Films releases "Loved."
