Tell us about your role in “Unorganized Crime.”

FREDDIE: I play Tommy Marino, a mob guy who works for the Fifth Largest Crime Family in NYC. Unfortunately, I am also a degenerate gambler and I owe them about 40 thousand dollars and when I don't pay up, they decide to have my best friend and son and brother of the crime Family, Gino make his BONES（ボーンズ）-骨は語る- によって luring me into a trap to kill me.

What would あなた consider Tommy Marino’s ‘best’ quality? And his ‘worst’?

FREDDIE: Tommy's best quality is that he is a charmer and can make あなた believe just about anything he is saying または selling. His worst quality is that he is not a man of his word. A deadbeat that does not pay his debts – also his downfall.

Any interesting stories from the set あなた can share with us?

FREDDIE: Yes. Yes. Oh wow, in one scene, I am tracked down によって Sonny's two henchman. They track me down at a gas station as I am coming out and ask me if I'm paid up. Well, as I snowball them into believing me, they start to call Chazz (Palminteri) who plays Sonny, and as they start to make the call, I begin to run, but one of the guys, is eating a slice of ピザ and holding the whole pie in a box in his hand. I accidentally push the box into his brand-new シャツ -- ピザ sauce is all over. I felt so bad, I bought him a new シャツ and presented to him the 次 time I saw him. The whole set was hysterical. All took it well and laughed, but I was a little guilty about it.

What’s the biggest lesson あなた learned from working on this project?

FREDDIE: When working on a project like this, あなた have to go deep into yourself and find those many emotions that are believable. あなた are playing notorious criminals, but also characters that are loyal to their families and to each other. So, there is love, hatred, conartist behavior, etc. Also, あなた are playing alongside a star, Chazz Palminteri, who is also one of my mentors and I study with him in his Master Classes. So, あなた better dig deep and know what あなた are doing.

I play Orson, bodyguard to Joey Pants Pantoliano, another great character actor. The friendships forged just from this movie are still current after over 34 years. Can あなた imagine, all this from just one movie. What a Blessing!

Watching that film now, do あなた think your 芝居 style または skills have changed over the years?

FREDDIE: Of course, my style and skills have changed. Just によって reason of years of training and experience in the many films and テレビ work I have been involved in throughout the years. If あなた don’t continue to train and study personally and professionally, あなた stay where あなた are. I have and still study with the best as far as I am concerned, including Oscar nominee Chazz Palminteri, Oscar winner Bobby Moresco of The Actors Gym in L.A. and NYC, and Ted Bardy. After studying with all of these great people and all of the projects I've worked on since “The In Crowd,” I better have learned a thing または two.

Do あなた have anything else coming up that we can watch out for?

FREDDIE: Yes, we are in pre-production for a film titled, "Who Killed Jimmy Gumdrops,” which takes a look at prejudice, culture clash, and comedy all rolled into a モッツァレラ, モッツァレラチーズ ball of confusion and misunderstanding under the penalty of death.
