Lily Tomlin & David O. Russell Meltdown

What Would Tyler Durden Do is a gossip blog beloved by teens. As usual, they know something we don't know. It's the kind of place you find videos like this, a rehearsal on the set of I Heart Huckabees that features a meltdown of the mad director David O. Russell and Lily Tomlin who is no slouch in the bitchiness department herself. A match made in Hollywood heaven. Watch it and cringe.

I loved that movie for it's clever and witty meld of cultural foresight and gently satirical take on front-pocket philosophy. Also, Isabelle Huppert. David O. Russell is a mad genius.

my amusement of this slowly fisseled ....this was actually uncomfortable to watch .....watching crocodiles eat wildebeest on wildkingdom is more serene.I cant help but notice the similarity between what this movie was about and what what was going on...heh but seeing Dustin Hoffman in the background staying in character was interesting......this would make a great bonus scene on the DVD.I had a meltdown like this myself earlier today....but it was more in regards to society in general.

Wow. I never heard a peep about this in the commentary, featuring the director, Mark Wahlberg and Jason Schwartzman.

Maybe it's the sadomasochist in me but I love this video. It certainly beats the usual "We were really like family on the set" usual bullshit and Tomlin is a freakin four alarm firecracker. In an old interview with Russell it was mentioned that he and George Clooney got into a fist fight on the set of "Three Kings." So.........

I agree as discomforting as it is...its kinda funny to see the reality on a film set for once instead of...the we were all like a family...which in any case everyone knows how familys can be.

Wow!
I love Lily Tomlin and always will,
but I haven't seen that side of her -
but when she has something to say - she says it.
David seems like he forgot to take his MEDS! What a freak
And if he had a beef with George Clooney and Lily Tomlin - I think we can all figure out who the problem child is...

,...I dont know ...I still like Tomlin as well but I do not DOUBT her bitchiness on a set nor Clooneys for a second.Actors and directors......I once read that John Wayne punched John Huston on a set....
