  Borah Bergman - Biography & Discography   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Borah Bergman (born December 13, 1933 in Brooklyn, NY) is one of the most signleminded and unique pianists in the history of jazz.
Working sporadically as a solo artist in the early part of his recording career, Bergman found acclaim (and was recorded more frequently) when he began playing duos, and has recently expanded to trio performances, though not in the typical jazz trio instrumentation of piano, bass and drums.
Bergman has credited his parent's left-wing beliefs for these ideas of equality inherent in his even-haded, ambidextrous approach, and his come-what-may doggedness similarly reflects their influence.

 Andrew Bergman
This horrible misfire from the usually reliable writer-director Andrew Bergman (The Freshman) has nothing funny, provocative, timely, or interesting to say (despite being based on a novel by Carl Hiaasen) once Demi Moore gets her clothes off.

Writer-director Andrew Bergman is capable of funny, funny stuff, but this movie runs out of jokes long before it runs out of comic ideas.

 Film - May 22, 2003   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Bergman’s script was a variation on the fable of the city mouse and the country mouse, but with a difference: It was a fable of two different kinds of city mice, the kind who seem to meet up only in movie farces.
In the new version, Andrew Fleming’s direction is sprightlier and more energetic than Hiller’s--almost anyone’s would be--and it’s tempting to speculate on what he might have done with Bergman’s script.
But the character Andrew Bergman wrote is part of what made the original funny.

 The In-Laws reviewed by Steve Sailer for The American Conservative; Albert Brooks, Michael Douglas, 2003, Alan Arkin, ...
The new screenwriters Nat Mauldin and Ed Solomon chose to use almost no jokes from the original script by the distinguished funnyman Andrew Bergman (of "Blazing Saddles," "Fletch," and "The Freshman" fame).
Bergman's script was so finely tuned to the personas of the lovable Falk and the volatile Arkin that almost none of the bits of business were transferable to the alpha male Douglas and the neurotic Brooks.
Bergman wrote the spy role as an honesty-challenged variation on Falk's famous Lt. Columbo, the bumbling but resourceful everyman.

 Salon Arts & Entertainment | "Isn't She Great"
The Divine Miss M tackles an icon her own size in this frothily enjoyable (if highly fictionalized) yarn about the life and loves of celebrity novelist Jacqueline Susann.
Andrew Bergman's casual but heartfelt biopic about Jacqueline Susann is a cupcake of a movie, a sweet and lightweight little thing that's all but served up in a ruffled paper cup.
They're entranced by the sheer fabulousness of their Jackie (Bette Midler) and her devoted husband and agent, Irving Mansfield (Nathan Lane), and after a shaky start, the one-liners -- and the Pucci -- start whizzing by so fast and furious that it's hard not to be tickled by them.

Writer-director Andrew Bergman is one of the best in the business when it comes to comedy.

One of the first, and still one of the very best retro eyes, alongside Nate Heller and Toby Peters, was Andrew Bergman's 1940's New York P.I. JACK LeVINE, who appeared in two very well-received books back in the seventies.

 Review: Striptease   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Several lengthy topless dance sequences are shot in an energetic and provocative manner.
It's easy to be cynical about this film's motives, especially considering how drastically Andrew Bergman's script has watered down the most biting aspects of Carl Hiaasen's novel.
Striptease is a curious mix of eroticism, comedy, and drama that, instead of blending into a pleasing whole, has a tendency to separate and curdle.
