ONE SENTENCE THAT PARTLY EXPLAINS WHY I CAN'T STOP READING MARK HARRIS' PICTURES AT A REVOLUTION: FIVE MOVIES AND THE BIRTH OF THE NEW HOLLYWOOD


Describing a scene during pre-production for Dr. Dolittle in which director Richard Fleischer met with Rex Harrison and his actress wife Rachel Roberts:
"Fleischer, Harrison, and Roberts then went out to a local restaurant called the White Elephant for an evening that ended in utter chaos when Roberts, who had been indulging her penchant for barking like a dog as soon as they entered the establishment, brandished a knife at her husband, and Fleischer hurried them out and poured them both into a cab."

OH, THE RAGE
This is a comment from an A.V. Club reader signed in as "A Tennessean" in response to this stupid video overplaying that Michelle Obama "proud of my country" comment:

"I can say that for the first time in my adult life (well maybe not the first), I've seriously wanted to fuck up some ignorant Tennesseans. Especially that smug prick from Vanderbilt. And the white woman talking about diversity and shit. Fuck her. I walk by a county republican headquarters everday and want so bad to smash their windows. They have this hideous oil painting in there with G.W. in the middle with his head bowed and Lincoln on one side and Washington on the other with their hands on his shoulders also bowed in prayer. Uhg! 245 days left!"

Hideous oil painting? I'm intrigued. Could he/she be talking about this?:


I'm guessing yes.
