Have you ever watched a sports underdog movie and been satisfied by the formula, but just thought to yourself "If only these characters were ridiculous Masshole caricatures, this movie would have been so much more special and enjoyable"? Then you and Fighter director David O. Russell have that in common. Something else you two have in common? You were both right.

David O. Russell is still directing movies, which proves that if you can make movies that are as terrible as they are incomprehensible, pseudo-independent studios like Fox Seachlight will give you money to make more. Russell is also still alienating his actors on set. First, it was George Clooney on Three Kings, then Lily Tomlin on I Heart (Mike) Huckabees. Now, according to the Hollywood Reporter, Russell has incurred the wrath of Sonny Corleone on the set of his latest, Nailed. I wouldn't drive through any toll booths or require in-home nursing if I were you, Mr. Russell.

You'd think it wasn't possible, but it's getting even harder to work with David O. Russell. This time SAG is actually stepping in and making actors leave the set.
We've all heard about the difficulties (that's putting it mildly, isn't it?) of working with director David O. Russell: First, he was a jerk to George Clooney, which is crazy since Clooney is the coolest guy on Earth. But, you know, they still made a damn good movie together, so I forgave Russell that one.
