Rotten Tomatoes). Before that, he also directed Sally Fields in Hello, My Name Is Doris, The Baxter, and the TV series (which he also co- wrote and starred in alongside WHAS star Michael Ian Black) Michael and Michael Have Issues.

In 2. 01. 6, he co- created and co- wrote the sleuthing comedy series, Search Party, which stars Alia Shawkat and John Early. Molly Shannon. Molly Shannon has been a household name since SNL, so when she showed up in WHAS, it was like rekindling an old friendship. Her comedic style may lack subtlety during her sketch routines (see Mary Katherine Gallagher from Superstar), but Shannon has proven over the years that she is more than some over- the- top comedian. In fact, considering the fact that she studied drama at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, it’s safe to say that Molly Shannon isn’t just your run- of- the- hill joker — a fact which she has proven after showing up as Gail in WHAS.

Shannon has gone on to star in television shows and films such as Marie Antoinette, Year of the Dog, Bob’s Burgers, Divorce, and Me and Earl and the Dying Girl. Her most recent film, however, Other People, has earned her critical acclaim — notably by way of a Best Supporting Female award at the Film Independent Spirit Awards. Marguerite Moreau. If you’re wondering why Marguerite Moreau looks so familiar (aside from her role as Katie in WHAS, of course), it’s because she played Connie in The Mighty Ducks. Now, let’s move on. As the official goodbye girl of Camp Firewood, Moreau has maintained a consistent acting career since the first WHAS.

In fact, even though her familiarity is still tied to the ’9. Ducks, she’s been popping up all over television for years, and in a variety of genres. You might have seen her in Lost, The O. C., Parenthood, and Shameless, but if you care enough about WHAS to read this entire list, then you’ve definitely experienced the pleasure of Moreau returning to play Katie in Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp (as well as Ten Years Later, which has already been established). David Hyde Pierce. Who really expected David Hyde Pierce to show up in a movie like Wet Hot American Summer? Known for playing the know- it- all brother on Frasier, the David Wain universe seemed like a far cry from the sort of material that fell within the actor’s wheelhouse.

That said, when he shows up at Camp Firewood as Astrophysics Associate Professor (that means he’s “less than“) Henry Newman, he fit like a glove. Since WHAS, Pierce made a trend out of voicing animated (and costumed) characters (following his role in A Bug’s Life) with movies like Osmosis Jones, Treasure Planet, and Hellboy.

However, his most jarring role came in the form of Warwick Wilson in The Perfect Host, where he’s cranked the creep level up to 1. He’s also starred in The Good Wife, as well as the Dustin Lance Black- scripted miniseries, When We Rise. Nina Hellman. Nina Hellman’s career after WHAS has been more under the radar than others.

Then again, considering the fact that WHAS was one of the first acting projects she’s ever worked on, that’s by no means downplaying her talent. Over the years, she’s shown up in various television shows, until securing consistent voice work on the animated series, The Venture Bros.

Since then, she’s popped up in other David Wain productions, including The Ten, Role Models, and Wanderlust. Aside from starring in various shorts, as well as the TV series Nurse Jackie and Expecto Patron, she of course returned as Nurse Nancy in First Day of Camp, and will do so again in Ten Years Later. A betting man will put money on the fact that her character will make some blatant sexual reference once again. Ken Marino. After proving how far he was willing to run for love in WHAS, Ken Marino has been climbing the comedic ladder ever since. He started slowly, landing roles in shows such as Grey’s Anatomy, Reno 9. Veronica Mars, and then took the lead (or at least one of the leads) in the Starz original series Party Down.

Marino essentially cemented his over- the- top brand of humor in Children’s Hospital, before landing a role in Brooklyn Nine Nine. He’s voiced a couple episodes of Bob’s Burgers and has shown up in Fresh Off the Boat, and in April 2. How to Be a Latin Lover.

In terms of other work he’s done behind the scenes, Marino is also the co- screenwriter on several projects he’s starred in, including The Ten, Role Models, Wanderlust, and the aforementioned Children’s Hospital. Joe Lo Truglio. For a while now, Joe Lo Truglio has been a sort of unsung hero in the comedy world. As Neil in WHAS, Lo Truglio pretty much displays the “Best Of’s” regarding his particular style. Shows like Reno 9. The State reinforce this. He’s had small roles in Superbad, Pineapple Express, and Role Models, but as of late, he’s been fighting crime (from behind a desk) as Charles Boyle on Brooklyn Nine- Nine.

In an unexpected move, however, Lo Truglio’s next big career task comes in the form of directing. He’s stepping behind the camera on a film that doesn’t necessarily seem to jive with the career that’s led up to it thus far. The movie is titled Little Green Men, and though there is little information regarding its plot, it’s being referred to as a Sci- Fi/Thriller. Whether or not he injects his comedic stamp on the film remains to be seen, but it’s still grounds for intrigue, no matter the direction he ultimately takes. Christopher Meloni.

Much like David Hyde Pierce, Christopher Meloni is one of those actors who doesn’t seem like he belongs in the WHAS universe. That said, the WHAS would be a shell of its former self without him. Before he was Gene the Cook at Camp Firewood, Meloni was Mr. Tough Guy in shows like Law and Order: SVU and Oz.

So, when WHAS came around, his foray into comedy was explored to the nth degree.

The American (2. 01. Wikipedia. The American is a 2. American thriller film directed by Anton Corbijn and starring George Clooney, Thekla Reuten, Violante Placido, Irina Björklund, and Paolo Bonacelli.[3] The Rowan Joffé screenplay is an adaptation of the 1. A Very Private Gentleman by Martin Booth. The film opened on September 1, 2. Jack (George Clooney), a gunsmith and contract killer, and his lover, Ingrid (Irina Björklund), are relaxing in Sweden.

Jack becomes alarmed by a trail of footprints in the snow and pulls Ingrid towards shelter. Sniper gunshots ring out.

Ingrid sees Jack pull a gun from his pocket and shoot the sniper. Knowing his identity is in jeopardy, and with little hesitation, Jack shoots and kills Ingrid. He flees to Rome and contacts his handler, Pavel (Johan Leysen), who insists that Jack cannot stay in Rome. Pavel sends him to Castelvecchio, a small town in the mountains of Abruzzo. Jack becomes nervous and, disposing of the cell phone Pavel gave him, goes to nearby Castel del Monte, Abruzzo, instead. While in Abruzzo, Jack contacts Pavel, who sets him up with another job. He meets Mathilde (Thekla Reuten), who wants him to build a custom sniper rifle for an assassination.

He also begins patronizing a prostitute, Clara (Violante Placido), and they begin a relationship separate from her business duties. Jack meets with Mathilde to test the weapon. She is impressed by the craftsmanship, but asks him to make a few more adjustments.

Later, Jack realizes that he is being followed by an assassin from Sweden, whom he kills. Jack is tormented by dreams of the events in Sweden and regrets killing Ingrid.

His friendship and conversations with a local priest, Father Benedetto (Paolo Bonacelli), encourage him to question his life choices. Both Mathilde and Clara notice Jack's association with butterflies, Mathilde by his expertise in endangered butterflies and Clara by his prominent tattoo. When Father Benedetto tells Jack he senses he lives in a special kind of hell, "a place without love", Jack starts to let himself feel love for Clara, and envisions a life with her. Jack talks to Pavel one last time — asking how the Swedes have found him.

In his growing fear, he even suspects Clara when he discovers a small pistol in her purse. He questions Clara about the gun and is satisfied with her explanation (to defend herself, since there have been newspaper reports of murdered prostitutes). Jack agrees to deliver the weapon to Mathilde as his last job, but at the last moment he opens the briefcase and sabotages the rifle. At the drop- off, Jack becomes suspicious that Mathilde plans to kill him.

Before anything can happen, a busload of school children arrives. Mathilde gives Jack his payment — a thick envelope full of cash — and the two separate.

As Mathilde drives away, Pavel contacts her and asks if she has killed Jack. She tells him she has not, but says she is following him and will kill him. Clara meets Jack at a religious procession in town. Jack asks her to go away with him and she agrees. Mathilde tries to shoot Jack from a nearby rooftop, but the sabotaged rifle explodes in her face. Seeing Mathilde fall from the roof, Jack gives Clara the envelope full of cash and tells her to go to a river where they had picnicked and wait for him.

He runs to Mathilde, who is dying on the pavement, and discovers that she also works for Pavel. As Jack goes to meet Clara, he hears Pavel behind him. They exchange gunfire and Pavel drops dead. As Jack drives to meet Clara at the river, he feels his abdomen and realizes he has been shot.

Jack arrives at the picnic spot and as he sees Clara, he collapses. Clara screams and runs to the car.

A white butterfly flits skyward from Jack's car. Production[edit]. View of the village of Castel del Monte (Abruzzo)Filming began in September 2. Castel del Monte, Sulmona, Castelvecchio Calvisio, Calascio and Campo Imperatore in the Province of L'Aquila (Abruzzo); in Rome, and in Östersund, Jämtland and other locations. As the Clooney character drives from Rome to Castel del Monte, there is an impressively long drive through the 4.

San Domenico Tunnel (Galleria San Domenico) that is between the exits of Pescina and Cocullo on the A2. Rome to Torano and Pescara. The car driven by Jack in the movie is a Fiat Tempra with Pescara licence plates. The film's "most romantic moment", according to director Anton Corbijn—when Jack takes Clara to a restaurant of her choice, their "actual date"—was filmed at a restaurant in Pacentro, Italy, near Sulmona. The comic- acting waiter in this restaurant scene was directed to stand in front of a two- bulb lamp fixture so that he appeared to have "devil's horns". Photographs on the restaurant's walls are reportedly of all the lovers of an early- 2. Clara orders Montepulciano d'Abruzzo wine for the dinner, and Corbijn said the film's company enjoyed many of the fine wines of the region during the months of production there.[4]The film score was written and composed by German singer- songwriter (and longtime friend of Corbijn) Herbert Grönemeyer.

A 1. 96. 7 song called "Window of My Eyes" by the Dutch blues band Cuby & the Blizzards is played over the ending credits. The aria "Un bel dì vedremo" ("One fine day we'll see"[5]) from Puccini's opera Madama Butterfly can be heard in the background of one scene, and "Tu vuò fà l'americano" in another.

In another scene the Italian song "La Bambola" by Patty Pravo plays."Western" films and other influences[edit]Once Upon a Time in the West, with Henry Fonda facing off as villain in a gunfight, is playing on a television on the back wall of a modest restaurant where Jack has been eating. In the DVD commentary, Corbijn notes this homage and says the American Western—and more specifically the Italian- American spaghetti westerns by Leone and others—were explicit models for The American.

Corbijn also notes the Ennio Morricone scores made famous in Once Upon a Time in the West, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, and other films.[4] Speaking of the narrow, labyrinthine streets of the Italian hill towns where much of the action of The American occurs, Corbijn says he was thinking, in filming, of the streets of Venice and the way they appeared in Nicolas Roeg's Don't Look Now (1. Large segments of the dialogue between Jack and Clara are taken verbatim from Graham Greene's novel The Honorary Consul. Release[edit]Marketing[edit]The first official poster was released on June 1.

Rotten Tomatoes based on 2. Its consensus states: "As beautifully shot as it is emotionally restrained, The American is an unusually divisive spy thriller—and one that rests on an unusually subdued performance from George Clooney."[8] Similarly, another review aggregator, Metacritic calculated an average score of 6. Rolling Stone's Peter Travers gave the film two- and- a- half stars, writing that director Anton Corbijn "holds his film to a steady, often glacial pace", and that the result is of "startling austerity".[1. Roger Ebert gave the film four stars, writing, "Here is a gripping film with the focus of a Japanese drama, an impenetrable character to equal Alain Delon's in Le Samouraï, by Jean- Pierre Melville."[1. Leonard Maltin called it a "slowly paced, European- style mood piece, short on dialogue and action and long on atmosphere".[1. Audiences polled by Cinema.

Score gave the film a D- rating. This was attributed to audience disappointment after the film was marketed as being more action- oriented.[1. Home media[edit]The film was released on DVD and Blu- ray on December 2.
