Have you seen our green room, Steve? Fuckin' huge! Julius Nasso (L) with ex-partner/extortion victim Steven Seagal

New York film producer/ex-con/"low-key guy" Julius Nasso gets more sweet media love in today's Variety, in which Addie Morfoot has a quickie about Nasso's new Staten Island production facility.

Honestly, The Reeler has been praying for a tour since first hearing about Cinema Nasso Film Studios in August, and I have been wrecked to not receive so much as an e-mail or press release soliciting coverage. So I have been living vicariously through the likes of Morfoot and dessert victim Lloyd Grove, whom, you may remember, Nasso abused like a rented mule last month while chasing publicity for his studio.

This time around, to his credit, Nasso spares Variety the questionable Thug Life 4-Eva stories from his nine months in low-security lock-up. Instead we get a short blueprint of the space where Nasso did a stately pleasure dome decree:

Cinema Nasso will include two feature re-recording stages, an ADR stage with a spacious talent green room, 12 sound editorial/design suites, and 12 DVD audio mastering suites.

Studio is also equipped with living quarters and will only be offered to one film at a time.

"This is not a come-and-go, day-by-day typical editing facility," Nasso said. "We will not have a lot of volume. It is more about more quality than quantity here."

And although I know we have had some trust issues with Nasso in the past, the first title on his list—the Billy Zane/Michael Madsen/Chazz Palminteri "starrer" King of Sorrow—should prove indisputably that quality is indeed Job One. The Reeler salutes him in bringing Staten Island the prestige it deserves.
