Related articles: Susan Sarandon, her Ping Pong Partner Jonathan Bricklin, SPIN Ping-Pong Club, and Hollyweirdo romance.

I'm kind of confused, noting the dates on these articles - the first link with info about a Sarandon/Bricklin romance is from 2010, and the last link cites rumors about a Sarandon/Bricklin romance in 2016. By the time I got to the last link, I had already gone off reading some article about Susan Sarandon dating Timothy Leary's ashes, on a pilgramage to Burning Man , and now I don't really feel like looking at her face any more. But since I spent the time, for what it's worth...

It's Definitely True — Susan Sarandon Is In Love With Her 31-Year-Old Ping Pong Partner Jonathan Bricklin! [He's Half Her Age!] | Hollywood Life | Jan 5, 2010.

Susan Sarandon, 68, 'pretty hurt' after younger ex-boyfriend Jonathan Bricklin, 31, 'starts dating Pablo Picasso's granddaughter Marina, 64' | UK Daily Mail | Aug 2015

Susan Sarandon's Secret to Staying Young: Be Happy | People | Sept 23, 2016

Excerpts:

At 63, Susan Sarandon appears to have found the fountain of youth. Newly single after ending her 23-year relationship with Tim Robbins in December, the Oscar winner is glowing and happy – and rumored to be dating a man half her age, entrepreneur Jonathan Bricklin (the pair have denied a romance).

To host Thursday’s bash [Pre-Oscar Ping-Pong Party at West Hollywood’s Skybar], Sarandon joined forces with SPiN New York, the ping-pong club in which she and the 32-year-old Bricklin are co-investors. The star says she first got hooked on the idea of a table tennis-themed bar when she went to ping-pong parties with a girlfriend. That ultimately led her to meet Bricklin – a hard-core ping-pong player and documentarian who had dreams of opening his own club.

The ‘Odd Factor’ - Sarandon admits that her participation in such a venture seemed a little outlandish, but she went for it anyway. In the end, the “odd” factor helped generate interest. “Somehow, my involvement was so absurd that people started investing money,” she tells PEOPLE, laughing. “The rest is history. It ended up being a really great idea because nobody had ping-pong plus a bar plus music plus really nice lighting.”

As for her involvement in SPiN? “Susan is our driving force,” Bricklin says.

Also, see her movie from the same year she opened that: PING PONG SUMMER

"Justin Lowe in his review for The Hollywood Reporter praised the film, saying that "Rose-tinted as the film's perspective may be, Ping Pong Summer is still a lingering, entertaining glance back at an era that Americans just can't seem to get enough of, whether in music or movies." Mark Adams of Screen International wrote that "Ping Pong Summer may well feel rather familiar , but there is a lot of good -natured and very accessible fun to be had about its tale of one 13-year-old's dream of glory on the table tennis table.". Chris Michael, in his review for The Guardian, said "It's gawky and awkward, but just like Rad's breakdancing worm , this one gets better as it goes along ."

NPR was less positive, with reviewer Tomas Hachard calling the film "a sometimes intriguing experiment in upended expectations, though not a particularly successful one," that was largely lacking "coherent purpose".[20] Calum Marsh of Film.com criticized Ping Pong Summer as "a cool ninety minutes of vapid 80s fetishism packaged to resemble a proper feature film" that was "resoundingly pointless".[21] Jeannette Catsoulis of The New York Times focused criticism on the "limp hero" and "lifeless plot", arguing that the positive qualities of the film did not "excuse characters that are little more than props for embarrassing fashion or delivery systems for dated slang ."[22] Ann Hornaday at The Washington Post argued that "its relatively uninvolving story, starchily directed by Tully and given little zing by an uneven cast, makes 'Ping Pong Summer'" an "okay-not-great" film.

Budget: $1 million (saving face?)

Box Office: $52,909 (every dollar matters now huh?)

What do you mean by this?

Budget: $1 million (saving face?) Box Office: $52,909 (every dollar matter now huh?)

adam_danischewski

It's likely "fluffed" to save face, they lowball and round down on the estimated budget and then count every crumb of income at the box office. On IMDB, the movie only grossed $25,781.

KnightsofHubris

I think a site like box office mojo is better source and they have $52,909 http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=pingpongsummer.htm

Googling the budget I have seen 1 million to 1.5 million. Not significantly different?

What did you think the budget should be? I guess I just felt the skepticism was very out of place and not related the OP's point.

adam_danischewski

It is significantly different that's 50% more, these types of people are often business oriented and it hurts them to point out financial losses. If you want to open a wound up on some of the powerbrokers, pointing out/alluding to business failings is not a bad way to go. With a one million dollar budget, what did Susan Sarandon get paid? Look how many actors their are, plus the cameras etc. They seemed to have no intent on marketing this movie (not enough budget), yet they wanted the movie to be made.

KnightsofHubris

I still don't understand your original point is supposed to be other than I think these people lie. Yes, 50% more, but still a low budget movie. Low budget movies often outside of a few key roles have actors/crew who are just starting out and want to get into the film business. Also they often work on a deferred compensation basis....this is we will pay you this now, but if we sell the movie at Sundance, you will make X. http://www.allaboutindiefilmmaking.com/2008/12/film-deferrals.html

I know someone who worked on a job like this when we were in college. Not sure he's fully been paid yet. He says every now and then the film will be sold to like Dutch TV and he will get a check for $12 or so. But he got his foot in the door and got real world experience and a credit and now he does big movies and things like the Sopranos. I just looked him up and he's got about 60 credits in IMDB including entire seasons of the TV shows. So it worked out for him. I also just found out there is an actor with his same name.

adam_danischewski

"Our story began in the spring of 2007 with a series of legendary ping pong parties in the Tribeca loft hosted by Jonathan Bricklin and Franck Raharinosy. The Friday night parties, known as ‘Naked Ping-Pong’, quickly grew from a few friends to a few hundred – from artists and models to bankers and hipsters to celebrities and ping pong professionals, the diversity of the crowd fueled the fun and vibrant energy that remains the essence of SPiN today."

I don't believe Sarandon is involved at all. Purely circumstantial

Thanks for the sub Jakestr. Check out the video at the 5:50 ish mark showing Z playing. Who is the guy in the brown coat to his left? He seems pretty mesmerized by the game. Is it me or does he have an unusually large head?
