Blind Item #3
This former A list mostly movie actor who has always been a pain and never nice to any fan who wasn't a young female interested in him is about to have several women come forward. Apparently on the set of a movie in which he starred and won an Oscar, there are a handful of then teenage girls who say he was always touching them and groping them and making comments about how tight they were. The teens did not complain to anyone because a different teen had been fired from the movie for complaining when the actor tried to kiss her.
Adrien Brody?
ReplyDeleteHe's never been nice to a fan? Wow!!
ReplyDeleteWere there young teenage girls in that piano movie though?
ReplyDeleteNot sure ? Been a long time since I saw it...
DeleteIt was a Roman Polanski film so...
DeleteNo young girls in the Pianist from what I could remember . I've seen it multiple times.
ReplyDeleteThere were a lot of extras though. So there's a possibility...
ReplyDeletecasey affleck?
ReplyDeleteRichard Dreyfuss during the filming of Mr. Hollands Opus.
ReplyDeleteIt isn't Adrien Brody. Are we just throwing out random names now till they stick? The blind suggests it wouldn't be Casey Affleck, either. The Dreyfus guess is the only logical one thus far.
ReplyDeleteYes.
DeleteRichard Dreyfuss didn't win an Oscar for Mr. Holland's Opus.
ReplyDeleteleto on dallas buyers?
ReplyDeleteJared Leto? He's known for being a jerk to fans.
ReplyDeleteLeto isn't former A list. Casey Affleck won his Oscar working on a movie so recent that ant teen co-stars are most likely still teens, not "then teenage girls." And literally NOTHING about Adrien Brody as a pick makes sense other than perhaps you personally don't like him.
ReplyDeleteDreyfuss won for Goodbye Girl. Is Hoffman still A list?
ReplyDeleteI still like the Dreyfuss pick. Hoffman is probably permanent A list.
DeleteMichael Caine? Cider House Rules would probably have young girls on set. And we know he likes them!
ReplyDeletePermanent A list.

ReplyDeleteYeah trish m, I didn't want to guess because there's so many options, but that's where I was leaning. After that Blame it On Rio blind who knows.
ReplyDeleteSince it specifies teenage girls, I think that rules out Kevin Spacey for American Beauty.
ReplyDeleteDustin Hoffman won an Oscar for Rain Man and Kramer vs. Kramer. I'm not sure its him though.
Warren Beatty?
ReplyDeleteRichard Dreyfuss is in the groping news today, so I'm sticking with that guess
ReplyDeleteYeeeeaaahhh, after reading this, I'm going with Richard Dreyfus.

I'm going with Sean Penn on "Mystic River" (2003). Def. fits the "always a pain" and the "never nice to fans except..." But is he "Former A List"?
ReplyDelete@Brayson, would you kindly provide a link to the Blame it on Rio blind? I've searched for it several times without success.....thank you!
ReplyDeleteAnother thought: Alan Arkin, Little Miss Sunshine (though I still think Dreyfus is more likely.)

ReplyDeleteBrayson87 yup, that movie was just vile
ReplyDeleteI would guess Sean Penn in Mystic River. There were some teenage girls in it as he played a man who lost his teen daughter.
ReplyDelete@Melvin The Reanimated - basically a pedo-is-funny themed movie so yeah I could see that
ReplyDeleteBet it's Richard Dreyfuss, from second hand personal knowledge. Can't say how I know without possibly outing myself, so take that as you will.
ReplyDeleteThe only doubt is about it happening ON the set of his Oscar-winning role, which was Duddy Kravitz. Could it be for an Oscar NOMINATED role and the blind is mistaken?
Has anybody ever noticed how "Mr. Holland's Opus" unfolds in 7 year intervals until it jumps to a 14 year interval? Was there another segment that was entirely cut from the film? If so, why?
@ Neil, here's the Blame It on Rio blind that was mentioned.
ReplyDeleteWhomever it is: Yay!!!!
ReplyDeletewhat about stallone? "rocky" = "pain?"
ReplyDeleteRussell Crowe (Gladiator)?
ReplyDelete
ReplyDelete+1 Cobblepot
Caine or Dreyfuss ... The "Blame it on Rio" blind gives me pause on Dreyfuss ... then again, see below about beig in "pain"...
"[a]s Dreyfuss himself explains in the pages of Moments of Clarity, a new book about prominent people escaping addiction by Christopher Kennedy Lawford.... Like others in the book, Dreyfuss writes in first person about his experiences. By the time of the crash, he says, he had become "a board member and probably chairman of admissions for the Assholes Center". The humiliation was crushing, but within days he was back to his old tricks, drinking and attending cocaine-fuelled sex orgies.
Yet everywhere he went, he was accompanied by a vision of a little girl in a pink dress and horn-rimmed glasses. She was even there at one of the orgies and it was on that day that the actor was overcome with revulsion with himself. "I knew that little girl was either the little girl that I didn't kill that night I completely lost control of my car, or she was the girl, the daughter I hadn't had yet. I knew that as a certain fact." He then reveals: "I sobered up on November 19, 1982. My daughter was born November 19, 1983. My daughter wears horn-rimmed glasses."
In those pages, Dreyfuss speaks also of being 16 different personalities in one man and the search for the chemical formula he takes today, legally prescribed for his condition.
"Pain"? You decide.
Cuba Gooding Jr. is a dick.There had to be a lot of girls in Jerry Maguire.

DeleteThere were no teenaged girls in Jerry Maguire
Delete'former A list', Oscar winner and 'always a pain' make me think of either Sean Penn or Russel Crowe. I haven't seen their Oscar movies, but the wikipedia article about 'Mystic River' (Oscar for Penn) sounds as if there might have been teen girls in it. So I'm going with Penn.
ReplyDeleteI saw Dreyfuss making a speech at a fundraiser for a mental health foundation just a few years ago- he said he was diagnosed as bi-polar but not until his 30s. He felt he had been in the manic phase until the depression hit him in this 30s.
ReplyDeleteRussell Crowe? Were there young girls in Gladiator?
ReplyDeleteI do not recall teenaged girls being in Mystic River.
ReplyDeletePenn mystic river for sure.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Penn is described as former A list on here.
ReplyDeleteCider House Rules was set at a boys orphanage. So it can't be Michael Caine *for that one*.
ReplyDeleteDidn't say he won the Oscar for acting.
ReplyDeleteHow about Billy Bob Thornton for Sling Blade. He starred and won for writing. There were teen girl extras, I'm pretty sure.
Gotta be Sean Penn for Mystic River.
ReplyDeleteThe movie was about the murder of a teen girl, so there was a "handful of teen girls" in the movie.
In both the book and the movie Cider House Rules, there was a dormitory of boys, AND a dormitory of girls.
ReplyDeleteAl Pacino, Scent of a Woman?
ReplyDeleteHaven’t heard he’s a jerk to fans tho...
James Franco?
ReplyDeleteNot Dreyfus. He won for The Goodbye Girl, which had a 10yo girl in it, but not throngs of teen girls.
ReplyDeleteAnd I cannot speak about his groping news, but for what it's worth, he likes his fans. A male coworker of mine was at a SAG event a few years ago, and Dreyfuss signed a bunch of stuff for him and some JAWS fans.
This is Caine, who won for Cider House Rules. He played an orphanage director who gave young women illegal abortions. There were lots of young girls/women in that one.
Sean Penn? He has always been a pain, and won an Oscar for Milk in 2009
