`Kiss Me Guido' Director to Helm `Very Mean Men'
First Miracle Group and Baio/White Productions Snag Tony Vitale to Direct Black Comedy
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 14, 1999--First Miracle Group Inc. (OTC BB:MVEE) and Baio/White Productions have enlisted Tony Vitale, director of the independent hit comedy ``Kiss Me Guido,' to helm ``Very Mean Men,' it was announced Tuesday by Tony Cataldo, chief executive officer of First Miracle.
The movie, from a script by L.A. playwright Paul T. Murray, will concern a bartender who weaves an outrageous tale about two notorious crime families who engage in a bizarre turf war over someone stiffing a waitress of her tip. The film is scheduled to commence principal photography on Oct. 23, 1999.
``We're extremely excited to have Tony Vitale on board,' said Cataldo. ``His first film, 'Kiss Me Guido,' is hilarious and touching, and we're expecting him to bring the same comic sensibility to our project.'
Ever since the success of Sundance Film Festival favorite, ``Kiss Me Guido,' the industry has been anxiously awaiting Vitale's next effort. In addition to ``Very Mean Men,' Vitale is developing ``Man From Elysian Fields' for producers Donald Zuckerman and Andrew Pfeffer as well as the pilot script ``Kiss Me Guido' for Paramount's Axelrod/Widdoes and CBS. Vitale is repped by manager Steven Greener of Elephant Walk and lawyer Don Steele of Hansen, Jacobson, Teller and Hoberman.
``Very Mean Men' will be produced by Steve Baio, Neil P. White and David Dadon, and executive produced by Tony Cataldo. Baio and White, who teamed in 1996, have collectively produced and co-produced six feature films. One of their projects, the action-feature ``The Hunted,' currently is airing on DIRECTV and is being distributed internationally by Showcase Entertainment.
