Hilfiger in Five Years: Firm Said to Forecast Wholesale Will Halve By Jean Palmieri NEW YORK — The long-term picture for the U.S. wholesale business at Tommy Hilfiger Corp. isn’t a pretty one. Meanwhile, the chances of Hilfiger being acquired by Wal-Mart Stores Inc. no longer seems so far-fetched; one investment banker pegged them at “50-50.” According to investment sources who have seen the company’s offering memorandum, Hilfiger is projecting that U.S. wholesale sales will drop by more than half, to just more than $400 million, by fiscal year 2009, from just under $900 million in fiscal year 2004.

  • S2 Character Descriptions
    S2 CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS TESS (Ella Purnell) No longer new to New York or her job, Tess is now learning how to use both her voice and her personal power. She hungers for knowledge and pushes herself to embrace every new experience — all while trying to navigate her lust for Jake, her relationship with Simone, and the increasingly dangerous dynamics within the restaurant. SIMONE (Caitlin FitzGerald) Simone is the embodiment of self-possession, beauty and authority at the restaurant. She has an effortless command over the guests, her co-workers and her wine list. But what her perfect facade conceals is the fact that she is entirely stuck at the restaurant. HOWARD (Paul Sparks) Howard is the general manager of the restaurant as well as father figure and mentor to his staff. Poised and thoughtful, he is a man who appears to be exactly where he wants to be. With his impeccably tailored suits comes a certain degree of power, with which he may have grown a little too comfortable. JAKE (Tom Sturridge) Jake is a moody, mysterious bartender, who is deeply attached to Simone. Jake arouses an overwhelming lust in Tess and plays a large role in her sexual awakening, which further complicates his relationship with Simone. ARIEL ("ARI") (Eden Epstein) Ari is a savvy and adventurous back waiter, with a bottomless wallet and a lonely penthouse apartment. In lieu of a real family, Ari’s coworkers have become the most important thing in her life. HEATHER (Jasmine Mathews) Heather is a smart, skilled server, and the only person of color in the front of house.

  • For Immediate Release 30Th Anniversary Restoration Of
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 30TH ANNIVERSARY RESTORATION OF THE KING OF COMEDY TO CLOSE 2013 TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL ON APRIL 27 *** New York, NY – March 28, 2013 – The Tribeca Film Festival (TFF), presented by American Express, announced today that the 30th Anniversary of Martin Scorsese’s The King of Comedy, restored in association with The Film Foundation, Regency Enterprises and Twentieth Century Fox, will close its 12th edition on Saturday, April 27. Closing night will take place at BMCC Tribeca PAC. Tickets will be available to the public via tribecafilm.com The King of Comedy – directed by Martin Scorsese, written by Paul D. Zimmerman, produced by Arnon Milchan, and starring Robert De Niro, Jerry Lewis, Diahnne Abbott and Sandra Bernhard – was originally released in 1983. Lauded as “shockingly prescient” by Moviefone, the film is recognized for its groundbreaking foresight into reality-TV culture and lack of distinction between renown and notoriety. It also holds up as the finest dramatic work of Lewis' career, one of Martin Scorsese's most underrated movies and a darkly funny film that features Robert De Niro playing the scary and fascinating character, Rupert Pupkin. The King of Comedy is being restored digitally in 4K from the original camera negatives at Sony Colorworks; John Polito at Audio Mechanics is digitally restoring the soundtrack. “Twelve years ago when we announced the first Festival, it was Marty’s idea for us to feature Restored and Rediscovered films. This year we are proud to close our 12th Festival with a restoration of his The King of Comedy,” said Jane Rosenthal, co-founder, Tribeca Film Festival.
