About Me

Townies Trailer - Movie will be reshot entirely

Character Description: Joey Sullivan is out for blood after the death of his brother Patrick. Joey has a deep Boston accent, a dead eye and a nasty scar down his face. He has no friends and for good reason, he's an unpredictable psychopath with a trigger finger.

Pros: His following from Boondock Saints should not be underestimated. He's Irish and looks it. His name doesn't get much more Irish mob. Underrated actor with a wide range. Big Indie film supporter. Cult status.
Cons: He'd have to learn the Boston accent.
Pros: He has a hardcore Boston Accent. Awesome actor. Street savvy in real-life. Indie film supporter.
Cons: Can't think of any
Pros: A-List. He's known as "The bad boy of Hollywood". One of the most talented actors in the business. He's Irish. He will act in low-budget indies if he likes the character and script.
Cons: He'd have to learn the Boston accent.
Pros: He's A-List. He has a natural Boston accent. He's a very talented actor in my opinion. He can afford to take on risky roles now that his career as a director is rock solid from "Gone Baby Gone".
Cons: His rate cost more than the budget. Some people would think he's going to suck because of "Gigli." But I know he'd be great in the role or I wouldn't have him listed here with the others.

TOWNIES SYNOPSIS:
After serving four years in prison for his part in Irish mob activities, Mickey Callaghan (Mike O'Dea) returns to the neighborhood in the midst of a bloody gang war between his crew and rival gangsters. When a truce ordered by crime boss Marty Flannagan goes wrong, Mickey's world rapidly ignites into ultra-violence and death. Townies is a socially intriguing look at the lives of Irish-American gangsters in Charlestown, a small community in north Boston, Massachusetts.

TOWNIES SCREENPLAY REVIEWS:

I think you've suceeded in creating something that guys will want to watch repeatedly like "Carlito's Way" and "Scarface."
- Review by: CaitlinMcCarthy

Townies will brutally saw the box office in half and become a classic in the likes of its influences: the Godfather, Goodfellas, Scarface, Carlito's Way, Good Will Hunting and Men in Tights.
- Review by: Bcap

This movie will blow Southie and Monument Ave away, and I loved those!
- Review by: Andy

If executed properly onto film, Townies could be the Irish answer to Goodfellas -and that's a huge compliment from me, as Goodfellas was one of the reasons I got into filmmaking!
- Review by: Mike Messier

This movie is going to be right up there with goodfellas and scarface. People will have posters of Mickey on there wall! I loved the script and can't wait to see it on the big screen
- Review by: Maizie

I do think if you could pass this script on to actors who have clout like Sean Penn, Ray Liotta, Steve Buscemi, or Gary Oldman, I could see some great character actors going for this script, hitting the film festival circuit, and the movie generating a lot of word of mouth. Sort of a long the lines of Narc or Reservior Dogs.

All I can say is load up with the best actors you can. Because this project will take the best Boston has.
- Review by: William

This film is going to blow the critics and everyone who sees it away.
- Review by: Kimberly Mercier

This screenplay rates quite highly for the combined use of comedy and drama in the gangster genre. I would really like to see this script come to life on film.
- Review by: Rosanne Buxman

Mike, great script! Pretty wild ride and a glimpse into that world.

So let me just say, that was amazing. seriously i could see it all happening as i was reading the script. it is very well written and the characters are completely real.
- Review by: Sheena O'Brien

The script was great I found my self at work wanting to go home and keep reading it. I can already see it as a movie.
- Review by: Jillian Swanson

You get the true Charlestown feel from these characters--the story combined with the intensity of the characters serves up a platter of greatness.
- Review by: Kate Kenney

I read the script last week. Awesome stuff. I couldn't put it down. I love the opening scene and really like Mickey's character.
- Review by: Jeff Convey

I enjoyed reading it and can not wait to see it take live form!!
- Review by: Natalie

I am hooked! The story grabs you by the scruff of your neck and won't let go. I want to cover my eyes with my hands, but can't help but peek through the cracks of my fingers - I don't want to miss a thing. The story is intense, but filled with humor! Those wise guys are FUNNY and you know they don?t mean to be. EVERYTHING in this script was feasible and believable, which made it all the more unnerving and brutal. Brilliant. Absolutely fantastic.
- Review by: Bettye K

Mike O'Dea has captured the true essence of being a Townie which is being loyal to your friends and family. This movie is going to go a long way.
