Danny DeVito to Be Awarded Something

June 25, 2007

Variety is reporting this curious tidbit: At the Karlovy Vary Film Festival next week in the Czech Republic, Danny DeVito will be honored with a Crystal Globe for, apparently, his "contribution to world cinema."

The article continues to say that DeVito will also introduce the movie he stars in titled The Good Night, directed by Gwenyth Paltrow's brother Jake Paltrow and also starring... Gwyneth Paltrow.

But back it up for a minute here... world cinema? Perhaps I underestimated the impact Reno! 911: Miami had on the world because this is baffling to me. What, exactly, has DeVito done for world cinema? No, seriously, I'm asking you.

.. oh and What's the Worst That Could Happen? ... with him and Martin Lawrence. FUNNY !!! Major funny. . . oh, and Death To Smoochy (some people killed this movie, I thought it was the best thing ever!). He stole some major scenes.... . He's a great actor who hasn't received enoguh credit, I think! .

This may be dating me a bit, but I LOVED Other People's Money. I think that movie is an 80's classic. I'f I'm flipping through the channels and see the movie on, I'll watch it from where it is...

Danny Devito was great as Penguin in the only best Batman before Dark Knight came out.

Hmmm....his Jersey Film Company produced Pulp Fiction, Man on the Moon and Erin Brockovich, so guess that counts toward the award. He was great in Taxi and in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (and he is the voice for Homer Simpson's half brother), so all in all, he's done some good work. He certainly has been around for a long time.
