they pay this guy a lot of money. They expect him to carry an entire movie that is supposed to make millions of dollars.
they know he's an intense actor who really gets into his scenes.
they wait til one of the biggest, more emotional scenes in a movie, and then they break his concentration.
I dunno - what do you expect?
I liken it to me being the lead programmer on a piece of software that can make or break the company's bottom line. We have a tighttight schedule, and I'm right in the middle of coding one of the most critical architectural functions the application has - then all of the sudden I notice that one of the junior programmers is tweaking the APIs I'm using (even though I asked him not to because I was doing some big development today).
I'd break his fucking hands.
and, well - it's not all true. But close.
sometimes - it's okay to get right up in someone's face and express your displeasure. Especially when you've been talking and talking, and it seems like you're not being listened to.
I remember when a British? Times writer published an AMAZING rant about an editor who didn't listen to what he had to say when he cautioned about messing with his work.
That article was looked at as "Wow - that's a cool way to fight back."
