The Italian Stallion played against type in this 1991 screwball comedy.
The Big Picture Hollywood is rife with breakouts, virtuosos, typecasts, and, unfortunately, miscasting — which is why you’ll rarely see an actor like Harrison Ford play a villain or Michael Wincott play the good guy. Diversity is key, however, so we often see actors taking chances on roles that may or may not fit them. Not every action star is cut out for comedy, and not every comedic actor is meant to do action, but it does happen quite frequently.
The Winding Comedic Tapestry of 'Oscar' The overall tone of Oscar is confusion and misunderstanding. To summarize its many twists and turns would be both overwhelming and unwise — it is a film that one must see to truly understand. In a nutshell, Oscar is the story of Angelo “Snaps” Provolone, a bootlegger and gangster who swears to his dying father that he’ll go legit.
In keeping with the stage play’s central premise, the entire film takes place within Provolone’s home, with only occasional glances outside, typically from the vantage point of the snooping police or rival gang. Keeping the action set in the garden, the foyer, the sitting room, and Lisa’s room allows the claustrophobia of the rapidly expanding powderkeg to set the stage for excitement as the pressure builds.
