Blind Item #3 - Himmmm
It's been a while since this (former A list mostly movie actress who is a multiple Academy Award winner/nominee) has done any acting of note. Her entire career really went over a cliff when she and this director tried to make their passion project which was so bad it helped sink an entire studio. He says he's never claimed to be a genius auteur, but could barely get any work after allowing her to make all the decisions for them both back then. Last week, she called him at the office. He put it on speaker phone, and I heard every word. She tried to convince her ex, this same director, that they should re-team and do a new project together. She swore it would re-ignite both their careers. She even hinted that they could "re-ignite our own passions too". The Director looked like he'd seen a ghost; he adamantly refused, and told her he'd spent nearly 15 years having to rebuild his own career from scratch all because he let her dictate that disaster of a movie to him. He politely wished her well, and after ending the call, he put her number in the "Blocked" list of his mobile phone. I told him I doubt the world would weep for that reunion.
