Blind Item #2 - Mr. X - Old Hollywood

This foreign born Oscar nominated director is set to make a movie about Old Hollywood. The thing is though, even though the movie will discuss the permanent A+ list studio boss' relationship with one of the subjects, the rest will just be fiction disguised as fact.

Just like every other 'based on a true story' movie then.

"MacDonald and Eddy were first paired in the 1935 W. S. Van Dyke-directed film Naughty Marietta, which was under MGM where MacDonald was signed to. The went on to star in eight films together. During the time, there was a struggle for MacDonald’s heart and soul between Eddy and MGM studio boss Louis B. Mayer who controlled her life and career."

The Jeanette MacDonald/Nelson Eddy blinds here have been so stellar, why change a thing? Truth can be so much more fascinating!

All 'based on real events, people, history' movies out of hollywood are mostly fiction disguised as fact. It's actually pretty pathetic because a lot of people see them and take them as fact.

Sounds like another movie that isn't going to happen or that I'm not going to see.
