FIGHT BETWEEN DIRECTOR DAVID O. RUSSELL AND LILY TOMLIN
March 21st 2007 19:55
This is really amusing. When we see a movie it never occurs to us what has happened while filming a particular scene. The finished material looks so perfect, when in reality it might have been a hell to create.
For you that have seen or even heard about I Heart Huckabees, this will be very interesting. For you that haven't, this will still be interesting:
Like you probably already have guessed, the man screaming is the director, David O. Russell and the poor woman is well-known Lily Tomlin.
Who's fault it is? Judging from more than this incident, David O. Russell's. While shooting Three Kings, they say that a similar fight occurred between George Clooney and him, when Clooney didn't like the way he treated the cast. Here's what they supposedly said to each other:
Russell: Why don’t you just worry about your fucked-up act? You’re being a dick. You want to hit me? You want to hit me? Come on, pussy, hit me.
OUCH.
Whatever the case is, I like Russell's movies. Too bad he has to be that way...

Yea, I know, it's freakish. It's fun to watch but I can't imagine the tension going on at that moment. No, not many would want to work for him, but still, usually his movies becomes successful so...
Even actors/actresses have bills to pay.

I'm a bit surprised at some ot the comments online. (e.g. "whatever the case... I still like Russell movies.) What's up with that??? Where's you're human dignity? You're talking about a stupid movie vs people's rights.

I agree with you at most points, but you can actually still like Russell's movies even though he's a shit.
It's like not listening to music because most of the makers are drug-addicted. Or something. Ok, bad example but you get my point.
But Russell is definitely a shit. A smelly one.
