How many of you knew that Tim Burton worked as an extra on 1992s HOFFA? Well, as in worked I mean, put on some pasty make-up and laid down in a coffin. During the Teamsters funeral scene, it seems that Danny DeVito and Jack Nicholson snuck up on Burton and surprised him. It’s also like a mini-BATMAN reunion. The Penguin meets the Joker. I thought it was a cool find for those of you who hadn’t seen it.
HOFFA seems to be an unforgettable film amongst viewers. I think it’s a multiple watcher. Nicholson sort of fascinates me in whatever role he decides to take on. He’s an interesting character on his own, then to add another layer to that makes for an entertaining performance.
