Bella Mafia, James, never forgotten


I saw him first in a now forgotten 1997 telemovie called Bella Mafia. What a performance! If you are a fan, and have never seen it, do your best to track it down somewhere. Sometimes the best things you do, you do early in your career...not so in James' case, but very nearly. And so I've never forgotten him, or that film.

I did see it: I was able to purchase the DVD from somewhere. He was/is wonderful.

But what's going on, James? Can you not find something that is worthy of your extraordinary talent?
We are waiting.

Holy ****, that was James!!!
I have watched Bella Mafia long time ago, but when i read your post James' face passed before my eyes. He was Luka! What a psycho! Although the movie is so-so, i always remember psychotic Luka and what he did to those women.

Ohhh I haven't forgotten it, he was fabulous in Bella Mafia. One of the reasons i think he can play the hell out of "Preacher".

I think actors love psychos.

Me toooo! I will never forget that. Ah! That scene where he is tied to the chair. And Kinski is just there with him knowing what she must do. That movie stuck with me because it was so deeply tragic, unremittingly so. I just kept thinking how beautiful he was even though he was...well..what he was.

"Daddy! He's killed Steve and he's jamming the door with him!"
