Duvall's deadly dance

The Toledo City Paper depends on readers like you! Become a friend today. See membership options

Readers probably know Academy Award-winning actor Robert Duvall from his roles in the television miniseries Lonesome Dove, or his film roles in The Godfather and M*A*S*H. But what many cinephiles may not know is that Duvall is a self-professed tango addict.

The veteran actor loves the classic style of Argentine ballroom dance so much, in fact, that he wrote, directed and starred in a film about it. In Tango Assassination, Duvall stars opposite his wife Luciana Pedraza as a professional hit man who becomes enamored of the titular dance while on assignment in Buenos Aires.

Friday, June 6, 7pm. Ohio Theatre, 3114 Lagrange St. 419-255-8406.
