Favorite NY Comic Greg Kritikos turns Misery into Movie Magic in CHARLIE BOY
Spend One minute with Greg Kritikos and you’ll realise why this Nyc comic headliner has audiences flocking to him and great buzz surrounding his starring role in CHARLIE BOY, a whole new comedy movie by Timothy Hines.
Greg Kritikos was always going to be a beloved comedic movie star. This gritty, street-wise, reformed gangster may be in comparison with Jackie Gleason for his heart and appeal. He’s frequently desired to headline Ny City’s biggest and many legendary comedy clubs, including Gotham, Carolines and Dangerfield’s. Now he is the starring role within the feature comedy CHARLIE BOY, which Kritikos co-wrote with Frederick Stroppel and this features Kelly Le Brock as Donna and Burt Young as Luca.
CHARLIE BOY, based loosely on Greg Kritikos’ real life, follows the tale of straight and sober recovering mobster Charlie Borakos. Charlie now functions as a standup comedian and, after many years of recovery and giving returning to his beloved community of Astoria, Queens The big apple, he or she is still burdened through the guilt of his son’s death and friend’s maiming as a result of his drinking, drugging and negligence of history. So when colleague Tommy G’s gambling problem surfaces to the extreme and his prior mob boss Big Angie moves back in town, Charlie’s benevolent and save-the-day attitude and knack for doing all they can to aid others and turn misfortune into laughter, saves the day and catapults Charlie to the next level of enlightenment.
Charlie Boy director Timothy Hines says, “It was Greg and Frederick’s script that drove me to make Charlie Boy. We have worked on this business for many years i have not read a real perfectly balanced and honest comedy. I had to choose this movie. And dealing with Greg, what I can tell you, he is a walking dynamo each inch an accessible humanist.”
“When I met Greg Kritikos I immediately saw this modern-day Jackie Gleason slash James Cagney man having a soul-spilling heart, who made me laugh my face off with one-liners and improvising,” comments producer Susan Goforth that is producing CHARLIE BOY along side Kritikos. “Kritikos coupled with Frederick Stroppel’s comedic writing, the leadership of director Timothy Hines and executive producer Dominick Martini and a heaven-sent cast and crew, and I knew CHARLIE BOY would end up successful. I’m just so thankful for everyone and all the good luck for this picture. I can’t wait for an world to find out Greg Kritikos knock that one from the park.”
