However, the line is actually I’m Winston Wolf. His hand gestures revealed fingers that trembled like plucked guitar strings his normally smooth delivery would occasionally, almost heart-stoppingly, stumble as he seemed to lose his place on the teleprompter. In Harvey Keitel ’s Direct Line commercials in which he parodies his Winston Wolf character from Pulp Fiction (and a little bit of the soul of cinema dies), he says, I’m Winston Wolf. Michael Caine, Rachel Weisz, Keitel, and Jane Fonda at the Cannes Film Festival in 2015. But it’s the 21st century now, more than a decade since Clinton left the White House, and there were aspects of his convention performance that not even the meanest-spirited impersonator would dare mock. In 1996, Keitel had a major role in Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez 's film From Dusk till Dawn, and in 1997, he starred in the crime drama Cop Land, which also starred Sylvester Stallone, Ray Liotta and Robert De Niro. At times during his speech-"I’m fixing to tell you why" "I was just a country boy from Arkansas" "Heck, he even appointed Hillary"-Clinton seemed as if he was channeling Darrel Hammond circa 1999. It was so dark out, Keitel says, that he couldnt see his. And then he was a 17-year-old Marine, terror-stricken in a night combat course. Like all great actors, Clinton has veered toward self-parody as he’s gotten older. Along time ago, Harvey Keitel was afraid of the dark. But when Bill Clinton strode out onto the convention stage on Wednesday night-a far shorter and less dramatic entrance than his infamous "Gladiator" walk in 2000-the cocktail chatter ceased and a hush fell over the room. The convention, which is broadcast on large flat-screens hanging throughout the restaurant, is literally background noise. The various media and political pooh-bahs here in Charlotte treat it as a clubhouse-a place to drink and schmooze and get away from the far less interesting stuff going on at the Time Warner Cable Arena a few blocks away. This stylized crime caper weaves together stories featuring a hit man, his philosophical partner and a washed-up boxer.
