This article provides information on some films. In the role of "New Yorker" writer Joseph Mitchell, source and subject alike of the film "Joe Gould's Secret," Stanley Tucci adopts the hesitant drawl of a displaced Southern aristocrat, who goes through the New York City of the early forties wearing his politeness like a second raincoat and hat. As producer and director of Joe Gould's Secret, Tucci behaves with similar reticence. In the film "The Road to El Dorado," a character Miguel, shoulder-length blond hair parted in the middle, reddish beard trimmed neatly at all times, sashaying into the South American jungle in a flowing outfit cut from the same fabric as the soundtrack's the singer Elton John songs.
