Hart Bochner

Rich and Famous

Director: George Cukor
1981

It has been more than two decades since we last screened Breaking Away and pretty much all we remember about that film is Hart Bochner! It has been more than two decades since we last screened Terror Train and pretty much all we remember about that film is Hart Bochner! It has been more than two decades since we were forced at gunpoint to sit through Rich and Famous and pretty much all we remember about that film, aside from Candice Bergen's carnivorous wardrobe, is Hart Bochner! Well, this is not entirely true. We also seem to remember Olivia Newton-John's husband taking his clothes off in Rich and Famous, although Miz Newton-John wasn't even in that movie. Or maybe we saw that film during a drug overdose. Who knows? But we do remember Hart Bochner in that movie and a lot of other movies and TV miniseries. My how time flies when you study a career as interesting as Hart Bochner's. For instance, this guy was in Supergirl! Incidentally, so were Faye Dunaway and Mia Farrow, but don't tell anybody.

And on top of everything else, Bochner occasionally directs movies too, joining the ranks of other actor/directors like Bill Paxton and Ethan Hawke. Speaking of Ethan Hawke, not long ago he directed Tuesday Weld in an independent film called Chelsea Walls. And speaking of Tuesday Weld, she recently appeared in a film called Investigating Sex, costarring with Hart Bochner! This is all very cosmic, but if you really want to have a major Bochner viewing experience, we strongly recommend that you locate a video version of 1988's Apartment Zero. We can tell you it's creepy as hell, but other than that all we remember about it is Hart Bochner.
