Over 10 episodes, Tolkien makes a clever, subtle and often Talmudic retelling of the story of “The Godfather”. In “The Offer,” the real enemies of art are the WASP suits in studios that only care about numbers. Although in their copious shouting matches you might think otherwise, the four men are very loyal to each other and to their Italian American teammates, Coppola and Al Pacino (played by Dan Fogler and Anthony Ippolito, respectively). The film is made up of a combination of chutzpah, passion and humour. In “The Offer”, Bluehorn, Bart, Evans and Rudy overcome myriad obstacles that threaten to derail production. When a fourth Jew, the aforementioned Rudy, takes over the reins as the film’s producer, it’s the beginning of a wild ride. His boss at the time at Gulf & Western, a group owned by Paramount Pictures, was Charlie Bluehdorn (Bern Gorman) – the ultimate Viennese Jew macher who made it big in America and was the last person to say whether the film was made. Mario Puzo (Patrick Gallo) was a broken literary fiction writer with gambling debts when he treated Evans and Peter Bart (Josh Zuckerman), two Jewish Paramount executives from the Upper West Side, a potboiler about the Mafia. In “The Offer”, Tolkien continues in the same tradition, returning Jewish resonance to this most iconic American immigrant story. film and a film that is a peen for the writers and actors who actually make scripts that make money for the studio. The younger Tolkien broke out of his father’s shadow and made a name for himself with the 1992 film “The Player” (based on his 1988 novel by the same name), one of the most spectacular, subversive looks under the hood of Hollywood.
His father, Mel Tolkien, was the lead author of “Your Show of Shows”, the most successful comedy sketch series on American TV at the time and the place where Mel Brooks, Neil Simon, Larry Gelbart and Karl Renner got their start. But the show’s real story-and one that critics have completely ignored-is a re-examination of the Jewish roots of Tolkien’s Godfather story.Ī descendant of Jewish American comedy royalty, Tolkien is truly the man for the task. Basically, the series follows the transformation of Mario Puzo’s novel “The Godfather” into Francis Ford Coppola’s masterpiece, one of America’s most famous films. Packed with Hollywood magicians, Jewish terms of love, and bagels and blinis, Michael Tolkien’s new series “The Offer,” now streaming on Paramount+, has the most intensely Jewish feel of any recent show on TV. The two Jews look at each other – and despite his anger, Evans is forced to smile. The Godfather,” instead of immediately coming to see him in Los Angeles, stopped in New York. There is a moment in the middle of “The Offer” when angry film executive Robert Evans (Matthew Goode), a senior executive at Paramount Pictures, demands to learn how Al Rudy (Miles Teller), an unknown film producer, has Called “as yet unknown”.
