Wow. Didn't see this one coming. (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/05/27/MNML10TUA9.DTL)
A fond memory in my life was when my buddy Ralph and I went to see Tootise when it opened. The theater was so crowded we couldn't
even get seats together. Big, big laughs, though. Bill Murray was hilarious.
And Pollack was fantastic in Husbands and Wives. Plus he took over Harvey Keitel's sopt in Eyes Wide Shot after Harv spooged in
Nicole's hair.
R.I.P., Sydney.

"Jeremiah Johnson",that's it,that's all,thankyou and goodnight...(y)
I forgot about Eyes Wide Shut. I like that film even though most people find it very boring.
I was on Netflix the other day watching some episodes of Alfred Hitchcock Presents and he was in an episode.

He's been in a bunch of stuff. Michael Clayton, most recently (I think).
I didn't even know he had cancer. They sure kept that quiet.

Supposedly, yes. He was being a bit too methody, actually jerking off, and Cruise and Kidman at that point were still giving Kubrick carte blanche.
But when Keitel actually came in her hair, Cruise and Kidman shut things down until Kubrick agreed to fire him.
I wasn't there, obviously, but supposedly it's true.

hmmm...I do know that Cruise and Kidman supposedly shagged on set/for the camera...so it's plausible I guess...I have no idea who the broad Pollack resuscitates was but jesus was she gorgeus...whenever I think of that flick that's the scene that jumps to mind...(y)
