Jodie Foster At Directors Guild of America Awards

Jodie Foster said of her Panic Room director David Fincher, “I don’t know if I’ve ever worked with a crazier person in my life,” and though she said it with a smile, it was clear she wasn’t really kidding. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button star Brad Pitt went another route, saying, via a taped message, “[David] has got a great ass.” Frost/Nixon stars Michael Sheen and Frank Langella, meanwhile, enacted a lengthy skit in which they recreated the climatic “I’m saying when the president does it, it’s not illegal” scene from the film over and over and over, implying that their director Ron Howard demanded as many as 93 takes from them. Sheen went on to say, “Working with Ron Howard is like working with an amateur,” pointing out that Howard was far too wholesome and earnest to work in the cutthroat and cynical world of Hollywood.
