That time David O. Russell called Lily Tomlin a c***.

He is a real piece of work to get Lily Tomlin to blow a gasket.

> Afterward, Tomlin remarked that she and Russell are "fine", saying, "I'd rather have someone human and available and raw and open. Don't give me someone cold, or cut off, or someone who considers themselves dignified."
Lily Tomlin, when asked about the incident in a separate interview, said she’d absolutely work with him again:
>”It happens sometimes—but David is a very mercurial person, and that's part of why he's so brilliant. […] We were always doing something, and then we'd get manic and crazy and I just flipped out on him. Then he flipped out on me. And you know, stuff goes on. But it's nothing. It's like family. If you have a big fight in your family, usually it's treated that way on the set. We don't want to misbehave; believe me, it's embarrassing. It's humiliating, you know? Because you just lose it. You act like a crazy person. [Laughs]
>But I adore David. I adore him as a talent. A lot of my friends said, "Well, you won't work with him again." I said, "Of course I would! I adore him, I love him. He's brilliant."

Dude doesn’t even deny it
>>Russell confirmed that the incident happened, but told police that Peloquin was "acting very provocative toward him" and invited him to feel her breasts. He also admitted to being "curious about the breast enhancement."

I apologize if it is different in this case. That’s why newspapers have to say “alleged”, I assumed Wikipedia was also trying to avoid a libel suit.
Let’s take him at face value. If she’s inviting you to feel her breasts, and it still turns into a sexual misconduct allegation, I can’t help but feel like your behavior has derailed the train somewhere on the way to Titty City.
I don’t care about him as a person. He’s a truly great filmmaker. Huckabees, Joy, American Hustle, Three Kings and the Fighter are all among the best films of the last 20 odd years. I pity people like you that are unable to appreciate great art because you want to be the first to point out their flaws. It’s the lowest form of criticism.
I pity people like you that are unable to accept that other people might not want to support the career of someone who's terrible in their personal life, despite their talent as an artist. It's the most pretentious form of being an asshole.
Of course you're right!
It's a binary question of can I personally stop his career and if not, why ever bother to choose or act according to my own lights?
Idiot.
How am I *not* myself? 🤮
How am I not myself
How am I not myself?
How am I not *myself*?
How am I not myself?
How am I not myself??
How are you not yourself?
Trying to work it out now with the pure being ball thing.
Don’t call it the ball thing
Movie was great, a shame the production was awful.
How was the production awful?
abusive shitty behavior throughout
Interesting, the OP article doesn't have anything about that.

David O Russell is an asshole and sexually assaulted his own niece
Had not heard that before! Any interviews I have seen with him really made him seem sketch as fuck. Now I know why!

You know it’s so easy to just… not sexually assault people.
Dude’s explanation was literally “she was asking for it.”
“_my niece_ was asking for it.” Just like… gughhhh
Oh my Lord… wtf
I love that Wikipedia calls it an allegation when he literally admits it
It has to be “alleged” because he wasnt found guilty in a court. Even if he admits it, he could sue someone for claiming he did.
Ah ok I didn’t know that but that makes sense I guess
What? That's not even close to being accurate.

He also put Chris Nolan in a headlock just to get Jude for this movie
Dear god, I hope he didn't mess up Chris' perfect coif
I didnt know that either that sucks

And yet have you stopped his career at all?
Of course you're right! It's a binary question of can I personally stop his career and if not, why ever bother to choose or act according to my own lights? Idiot.
Damn you're definitely the hero and a better person than David O. Russell
I mean... I can spell the dude's name right
Oh shit you totally got me
No mayo, she hates it. And she cannot eat chicken salad.Â
It was tuna salad! TUNA!
He orders tuna fish because the lady hates chicken salad.
“No mayo” has been stuck in my head for *years*
Have you ever transcended time and space?
Yes. Uh, no. Time, not Space. No, I don’t know what you’re talking about.
“What happens in a valley at dusk?” “Everything!” “Nothing!” “Everything! “NOTHING!”
The older I get the more I can identify with Mark Whalberg’s character.
It's one of my favorite movies. Learning about the director's reputation was disappointing.
Me too
I’ve got Shaquille O’Neal, I got Shaq
I loved this movie.
Nobody sits like this rock sits You rock, rock
What happens in the meadow at dusk?
Nothing! Everything!
“Is it a crime to look at Lange?”
She said Fuck-abees.
“Why is there always glass between us!”
This was my comfort movie for a long time. “How am I not myself” is such a good line.
Great film. Don’t confuse the singer with the song.
Ain’t nothing wrong with a little bump and grind?
Shania doesn’t give a shit!
