Four time Golden Globe nominee Armand Assante

Feb 19, 2008
Four time Golden Globe nominee Armand Assante famous for his roles in films such as The Mambo Kings, Judge Dredd, and The Odyssey, stars in the critically acclaimed California Dreamin' (Nesfarsit/Endless) California Dreamin' is based on an incident that occurred in June of 1999, when a NATO radar system was en route to war torn Kosovo by train. The mission comes to a bottle-neck in Romania when a corrupt railway station manager demands that the appropriate custom forms be completed before he will let the train pass. Through the often hilarious confrontation between the black-marketing station manager and the leaders of the United States military squadron accompanying the system, we observe modern-day life of provincial Romania, and laugh through tears at the obnoxious system left over from communism. "Screened at the Toronto Film Festival on September 15, the film was enthusiastically received by the audience, and I had the opportunity to discuss the film with Armand Assante who expertly breathes life into the principle character Captain Doug Jones".
