Tony Bennett Leaves His Heart With Bella
Deal Hudson
The singer Tony Bennett surprised everyone by standing up at a New York showing of "Bella," interrupting lead actor Eduardo Verastegui, and telling the audience that "it's one of the most amazing films I've ever seen, and it's a masterpiece. This is what America needs -- it's the right time for this movie!"
Bennett's comments -- he was in tears at the time -- were captured on film and will be posted later today.
This news comes from Corby Pons, Vice President Coalitions, Metanoia Films.
This could be exactly the kind of break "Bella" needs to make it past the second weekend and into more than 164 theaters.
The movie bella is a celebration of life and how hispanics live life to the fullest with passion,food as sacrament,music,dance,color and the importance of familly ,warmth,and hospitality.It shows what is missing in this culture that is so cold and distant.A cold wind of calvinism is what others from warmer cultures always comment on about Anglo Americans regardless of whether they are christians or not. They lack soul.
