Movie buzz: De Niro in Rome, the young John Lennon
WHO Robert De Niro
THE MOVIE "Manual of Love 3"
THE DEAL Residents of Rome earlier this week complained so loudly about the disruptive production of De Niro's upcoming film - he stars as an American professor who falls for a colleague, played by Monica Bellucci - that law enforcement officers had to step in and calm things down, according to The Hollywood Reporter, citing reports from local papers. The film is the third in a successful Italian franchise and marks De Niro's first foreign-language production since Bernardo Bertolucci's "1900" in 1976. The actor reportedly will speak Italian.
THE MOVIE "Nowhere Boy"
