Mariel also became an actress and, later, a successful businesswoman. (Margaux and Mariel co-starred in one of the worst, most exploitative movies ever, “Lipstick,” with its infamous rape scene [NSFW].) Margaux’s life was fraught...

I don't think we ever reported on it at the time, but back in March Andy Garcia was talking up a film called Hemingway and Fuentes, about the friendship between Ernest Hemingway and his fishing partner and longtime friend Gregorio Fuentes. At the time, Anthony Hopkins was loosely attached to play Hemingway. That casting has now firmed up, and the film will move forward with Annette Bening also aboard...
