What a great night last night for former boxing champ, Vinny Pazienza! I was grateful to be invited to the premiere of the new movie "Bleed for this" at the Providence Place Mall IMAX movie theatre. Congratulations to Vinny and Producer Chad Verdi on what promises to be a winner!

In a star studded event which featured the cast, extras, producers and The Who's Who of Rhode Island, the audience was treated to what promises to be an award winning movie. Miles Teller's portrayal of Vinny Pazienza hit the nail right on the head, from his passion to his Rhode Island accent, it was flawless. Aaron Eckart was equally outstanding playing Vinny's trainer Kevin Rooney. Also, adding to the mix was the popular Kathy Segal who portrayed Vinny's mom, the kind of mom we all grew up with as Italian Americans. Not to be forgotten, was Ciaran Hands who played Angelo Pazienza, Vinny's dad.
