  • Ahhh. Power struggles are always a bitch. (assuming there are only two sides (and to quote They Might Be Giants)) I don't want the world. I just want your half. That being said, Hahahahahahahahahahahahahah!

  • Holy fuck. How could you act like this in front of Hoffman?

  • And after all of this, the movie still sucked.

  • Hahahaa. The funniest part is when he goes out one door yelling and comes back through the other still yelling. Even though I know he can be a jerk, I am siding with him though. Lilly was acting like a total bitch and he was trying to be patient and soft with her. But she just kept it up, and boom! Hahahaaa.

  • @wiredhorn Tomlin was being a diva but there was NO excuse for physical violence. Watch that poor woman at the door who had to shield her face from the flying papers (1:16). Then he went back to kick up the books, which could have easily injured Hoffman (1:23). At 1:36, Tomlin flinches as if the director threw something at her (but missed? There was a thud). And when he comes back in, he knocks over a lamp at 2:16.

    He was being a child yet he accused Tomlin of behaving like one.

  • GO FUCK YOURSELF!

  • I'm on his side.  Actors can be *incredibly* trying sometimes.

  • And in the end... I ordered the fucking shoe lifts!

  • Dustin Hoffman is like "Oh shit oh shit... if I sit real REALLY still, no one will notice me."

  • This is what we want on the bonus features of DVDs, not some actors brown nosing each other.

  • Ok sound! yeah, he's got a temper issue, she was well controlled.

  • WHY NO SOUND?

  • This is better than the actual movie lmao

  • what a waste. the movie sucked anyway.

  • I really liked how he got mad. She probably would've kept just grinding away at him endlessly if he hadn't. Sometimes it's okay to get that mad if people insist on being difficult when a job needs to get done. She probably didn't pull that anymore.

  • @unholyimage It's NEVER okay to be physically violent at work, especially when there are bystanders. In another post, I listed the time signatures of 4 acts of violence, 2 of which could have injured people. First, things went flying from the desk to that woman's face. Then he kicked up books that could have fell on Hoffman's eyes and head.

    If he had a PERSONAL issue with Tomlin, pull her aside and have it out. His actions would get most people fired and Security called.

  • @lgbtTV4 I am very appreciative videos like this which let us know about ALL of the dysfunctionality behind all of the films we think are so interesting or beautiful. Nothing more than illusion. Believing what we feel when we are told stories by this ilk of humanity is a bad choice imho.

    BTW, I never said anything here was okay. It's just personally gratifying. The only other choice he had was just to sit back and take it. And that is probably what Lils wanted him to do. Bad move.

  • poor grip crouching by the door... loving making movies

  • i got scared and suprised when he came tru the side door XD

  • The guy's an idiot. If he ever asked me to star in a movie with him directing me, I'd turn the role down.

  • @physcovideos The same likelihood of a snowball's chance in hell.

  • The best part is when he storms off in one direction and re-enters through the door on the other side. Or maybe it's that the cameraman never stops doing his job and even pans over to center the fight.

  • I love the grip on the right hand side cowering into a fetal position, remembering mom and dad's fights, during the director's rant.

  • @06film06

    Fortunately you'll never be in the position to manage people in your life... It seems apparent that you have no people skills based on your comment.

  • In his defense, he's directing her and she does not want to act out what he directs. It really does have to be extremely frustrating and intense to direct in such a tense environment.

  • So many directors act like this, they just caught this one at the right moment on film!

  • Can't believe David O'Russell was yelling at Ms. Frizzle!

  • This ugly has been - with a very fake other persona - really shows her colors here. She ought to be happy she is even getting a gig as old as her laugh in ass is

  • Acting must be so hard.

  • David O Russell is just a hot head director, in the same vain as James Cameron and other big names out there. You should read about his fight he got into with George Clooney. This guy is a lose cannon and I am suprised he doesn't have 20 assault cases pending against him on a daily basis. But then again when it comes to Hollywood who knows reality from fiction right? Could be one big publicity stunt to promote this pos film.

  • @JediGoddessChristy i like your theory. it's the only one that doesn't make me want to break down and cry.

  • She is being a brat and complaining and shit, of course hes gonna lose it.. Directors dont sleep lol

  • good for david o. russell. everyone seems to think he's in the wrong but he is the fucking boss and it's his movie and she's being a mouthy, unhelpful bitch. in any other job she'd be fired on the spot. in the movie business i guess that's not practical so the best recourse is prob just to flip out and put her in her fuckin place.

  • wow i feel like she had a point, and she's an older woman. there was no reason for him to flip out like that, though her language was beginning to get sort of vile. he should have told her to take a break.

  • good thing this wasn't the fighter, cuz he's ripping fucking lights down 2:13

  • She was too good for that movie.... It was a piece of shit!

  • he worked on that piece of shit film for 3 years?! THAT is the funniest part of the vid

  • Lily Tomlin can't take direction, according to her history.

  • "You're a F'ing grown-up, ACT like a grown-up."

    Huh, okay, pot, kettle, black, all that stuff.

    Deadly combination right there ... Woman with PPPMS (Psychotically Permanent Pre Menstrual Syndrome) + an over-size 14-year old in the depths of hormone-fueled puberty whinny-fits, with a serious case of A'holeitis thrown in = Skeers Me!!

    Wouldn't visit that set even if invited, had travel & accomodations paid, & given a thousand bucks complimentary spending cash. I value my LIFE more than that.

  • I hearty this

  • What a fucking idiot,.. And this piece of shit will direct Uncharted movie,..

  • OMG!!!!!!

  • lol, can you imagine if David O. Russell yelled at Christian Bale like that? More than paper would be flying.

  • This sounds like me at work!!! 

  • what an ass

  • 1:16 - WTF! That poor set dresser gets the heavy hole-puncher (or whatever that was) right in the head! Good thing she didn't sue this precious delicagenius director.

  • I am shocked to hear such language out of Lilly's mouth..she is such a sweet person...and as for the director I would knock the piss out of him as soon as he called me a bitch

  • "we'd better get some insurance against the director" LOL

  • hmm, from my opinion both David and that women are complete regards and douchebags. If the women didn't whine and bitch and stayed in the fucking kitchen, then David wouldn't have gotten pissed off. To be honest I don't see how there's anything wrong with David when she's the whiny one that started all this crap. But regardless, Uncharted movie will be fucked. Ah well.

  • @MrShadowz1337 You are a total dickhead. Enjoy watching your movies with no women in them. You "regard".

  • good directing, way to bring those spoiled brats back down to earth!

  • Wow, David Russell is an unbelievable douchebag. He's chemically imbalanced to be acting that way. What's even funnier is him proclaiming that he worked three years on that piece of shit travesty that was I Heart Huckabees. Horrible movie! No wonder Tomlin was pissed off.

  • Uncharted is fucked. Thanks for casting Mark Walhberg and fucking Pesci instead of Nathan Fillion and J.K. Simmons.

    David Russell is a joke. He should set up came next to Uwe Boll.

  • @OniSyphon David O' russell rocks. Aw, are you upset he's directing your favorite video game? Grow up and move out of your parents basement you fucking loser.

  • this was nothing compared to him fighting with george clooney

  • @MrRamirez787 what happend? lol

  • @myTwilightsaga101 david russel called out george clooney on the set of the movie three kings. George didn't like the way he was treating the actors and crew. they ended up having a fist fight on set.

  • @MrRamirez787 well damn lol i gess that dierector isnt easy to work with at all. I love the three kings its such a good movie tho...and i wish that fight was caight on tape!

  • Well, I am sooo glad this guy has Uncharted in his hands...

  • I'm on Tomlin's side...she's won way more awards and nominations than him. He sounds like he's going through meth withdrawal.

  • I'm going to have to site with Tomlin here, because that movie was a confusing, muddled POS. Seems like the director had no idea what he wanted during shooting, through editing to the final POS product.

  • wow... this is funny as hell.

  • storms out and rages like a stupid 5 year old brat for 5 minutes, runs back into the room and tells her to act like a grown up? wtf?

  • HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ROFL LMFAO

  • were being patient with you...

  • haha jason schwartzmen is just like "I am not getting involved" haha

  • Comment removed

  • David O Russell + Christian Bale + Mark Wahlberg = CHEMISTRY lol... all loose fuses should hopefully deliver in THE FIGHTER

  • Never thought I'd see the day when someone got mad at Lily Tomlin, of all ppl. She's been around a loooong time and nothing negative said about her

  • @WarRogers Look up Lily Tomlin freakout,

  • George Clooney said he's a genius but his people skills are lacking. Russel challenged Clooney to hit him, and went for the throat, and Clooney fought back. Was it about getting him worked up for the scene the way he's acting towards Lily? Who knows. Maybe this was to get him to eat some humble pie, but James Caan quit working on the still unreleased "Nailed"... he could prob. make a cool movie just from the arguments he gets into.

  • @muziktrkr i don't think he was trying to work up the actors. i heart huckabees required tomlin to be a pool of cool water. he just has a short fuse!

  • THAT DIRECTOR SHOULD HAVE BEEN ARRESTED FOR BEING VIOLENT LIKE THAT

  • Must have been a heavy flow day...

  • lol. I love the way the crew gets out of the way. I have to watch that film again. Who would have guessed wtf was going on offscreen.

  • I can't believe the sound guy recorded this, so unprofessional. Funny, but unprofessional 

  • The sound guy may not have recorded it. The sound is coming live from the mic straight through the sound recordist's equipment (called E-E) and into the video assist rig where it was recorded with the video assist's tap picture - which is what we are seeing (hence the poorer picture quality). The video op should record EVERYTHING (especially if it came to blows, and the tape was needed as evidence.... just a thought).

  • It's hilarious that he's telling her to act like a grown up when he's throwing things around and screaming in her face!

  • Man, what a baby!

  • go david o. russell. he's one hundred percent right, tomlin is being a total bitch.

  • David Russell=Nightmare

  • Filming "Three Kings," DR was abusing the crew verbally & physically, and GC had had it. Defending the crew, GC said, "David, it's a big day. But you can't shove, push or humiliate people who aren't allowed to defend themselves." DR then taunted GC: "Why don't you just worry about your fucked-up acting, you dick?! You want to hit me? Come on pussy, hit me." DR then grabbed GC's throat. GC bolted, punching Russell DR into a crouching heap. DR apologized but GC vowed he'd never work w/him again.

  • Lily is a superb, consummate PRO. This director hasn't given clear, definitive direction, she doesn't know what he wants, so she's mega-STRESSED/FRUSTRATED. HER butt's on the line, NOT his. Stars=flops, not invisible directors. This bully director blames his crews for his shortcomings. I'll recap a fight G Clooney had with him on the set of "Three Kings" in '99. Clooney defended the crew against the director's verbal/physical abuse, and it came to blows. GC=George and DR=David, the director.

  • Yeah, he's the adult. I never heard her call him any actual profane names, yet he calls her horrible terrible names. I own the movie on DVD, but now I feel like selling it after this.

  • wow, this video and the car one show how much of a bitch lily tomlin really is

  • LMAO

  • I wonder what Dolly Parton's character from 9 to 5 would have to say about little boy Bale? Would she say the same thing she said to Mr. Heart?

  • holy shit you guys@1:10 angry man-child is angry

  • What year was this?

  • @jjguy23  2004

  • I love how the AD is quietly going hustling the crew away. "Let's take a 5"...

  • Shouldve put this on the DVD lol

  • Comment removed

  • GOOD! I can't stand Lily Tomlin I don't even know how she ever became famous! GOOD JOB DAVID!

  • YOU'RE A FUCKING GROWN-UP! I'M HERE TO FUCKING HELP YOU!

  • not only does he come through that door... but he's ranting and screaming about being an adult. and this comes on the tail of him sweeping all of the paperwork and books from the desk & throwing blunt objects at his cast and crew. he makes a valid and convincing argument... that Lily Tomlin needs to grow up already.

  • I love how she looks like she's about to get hit by something at 1:36

  • "i've never fucking yelled at you!"

    haha. wow. yell-fail.

  • did anybody notice that the guy in the chair never once flinched throughout the director's tirade?

  • Yeah, like he's acting like a grown-up, throwing a massive temper tantrum and throwing shit around. Not child-like at all!

  • I'm with him on this. Like he said, he worked on the movie for three years and then she comes in like an A-list actress, when indeed she's not, and tells him how to do his job when she's in fail mode.

    Shite movie. Great video haha

  • @PoffFtw - That's not what happened. She wasn't getting direction. She had no idea what to do in any given seen because he has no people skills and cannot explain himself. Russell has almost all but ruined his rep in Hollywood. Tomlin has been around for decades before this guy, and will be around longer than him. - Look up the problems Russell has had in almost all his movies. That might change your mind about Lily.

  • LOVE LILY!

  • Wow...at first, I thought someone recorded my parents and put it on Youtube, haha.

  • Tomlin is acting and talking like a little spoiled brat. shes acting like a big time actress but in reality shes nothing more then a B actress. I'm sure after days of dealing with it he freaked out. should have slapped the bitch.

  • Tomlin speaks kindly of the director. I guess they're friends? I guess we need to know the context of the dazzling screaming we see in these clips.

  • He needs to be bitch slaped!

  • LOL THIS IS SOOO FUNNY! I love how he comes back from the door! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

  • thats funny - after all that, which is painful to watch (for the crew and other cast), then..."be taller!" haha

  • so, she cant work under pressure, basically. she pushed hit buttons.

  • That was the best movie ever made !

    My drug dealer told me soooo !

  • i find it hilarious david is telling people to grow up when he gets into fights with many of his cast members. he's the common denominator; its him not them!

  • if you look when he throws the shit of the desk it hits the guy on the floor! ahaha

  • This is hilarious. What makes it even more funny? This movie SUCKS!

  • Hero`s seem so from afar,

    but if you meet em,you'll think twice.

    Genius is`nt like the rest of us.

    Some of us are nice.

  • Well, I can understand where he's coming from. Its called 'Blind Rage'. When people push me to the edge I get the same way. But you would have to constantly piss me off in order for that to happen.

  • i like how Jason Shwartzman just sits there silently.

  • eh ill bet they're both douchebags, wouldn't surprise me in the least

  • Anyone else think it's hilarious that he leaves and then comes through the fake set door seconds later. It's like a cartoon!

  • @IWalkOnBothFeet

    I was going to say the fake door re-entry was the funniest part.

  • I thought it was so hilarious :)

  • @IWalkOnBothFeet  haha

  • Tomlin didn't show much professionalism with her sarcasm and condescension, and I don't blame him for getting mad at her attitude.

    But screaming, name-calling and throwing set pieces around is taking it to a whole other level.

  • @annenna david started it lol

  • lol whats up with the crew leaving? they're acting like 7 year olds when the parents are fighting.

  • The crew left because (you can hear in the background) the assistant director calls for everyone to leave the set (that's when Schwartzman turns around and then leaves). I guess she was trying to give Tomlin and Russell the opportunity to have it out one-on-one without interference from anyone else.

  • She pushed him I know i myself can keep it up to a point when i am provoked But if i lose it hell breaks loose

  • She planned that from beginning. If I were a director, there is no way in hell I would ever work with her. Anyone can see that she was trying to get to him. Very unprofessional. Just think what would you do if you were trying to direct and she talked to you that way. " to many changes" " i can't understand you, and it is not the first time" Com'on this was a set up.

  • lol don't forget "sorry, i'm not as brilliant as you".

  • David O Russel is a Spielberg wannabe cocksucker who treats his actors and crew like shit . Proof : this vid

  • And what about treating his crew like shit on Three Kings filming , where Clooney said it was the worst experience of his career , and when he headlocked Nolan at a party ? Did they also deserved to be treated like shit ?

  • "Act like a grownup", he screams after pushing piles of paper off a desk, kicking over a box, and storming off the set swearing. Class act.

  • To be fair, Tomlin isn't exactly following her own advice about "setting a standard" for the crew very well either, treating Russell in a condescending manner until he finally blows a fuse.

    This is a situation where both parties - actress and director - should have resolved their differences less explosively, and trying to make one or the other look like the bad guy is a pointless exercise.

  • LMFAO thats class hahahaha

  • is this normal on hollywood movie set?

  • I think it's hilarious how he stomps off one side of the set and then pops in another end of the stage lol.

  • "I'VE NEVER FUCKING YELLED AT YOU!! BITCH?!!""

    Classic Dave

  • Lily Tomlin is well known for throwing tantrums on set and generally winding other people up. 'Difficult' is the word for her.

  • and David O Rushell is very known for having tantrums on set. he ended up having a fist fight with George Clooney on the set of Three Kings.

  • @QuietGiantProduction Who the fuck is O Rushell???

  • Yes, dealing with difficult actors is part of Hollywood history and all the great directors had a knack for it, I think.

    Not so with this poor man....

  • It was a shitty movie too.

  • It still beats a lot of other jobs I've had

  • Good point superstar! At least they are getting a crap load of money to be abused on the job rather than simply minimum wage or slightly above.

  • yeah and the way the Director was shouting really made him look great, Tomlin may have been a pain but a directors job is to keep actors in check and make the crew have some cohesion, that was his failure not hers.

  • Yeah, but if Lily complained multiple times over stupid things and was generally uncooperative, than I can understand his outburst. Maybe he should have handled it differently, but a movie set is stressful.

  • Come work in the glamorous and exciting world of making movies!!

  • I've heard most actors and actresses have mouths like longshoremen, even Angela Lansbury!

  • honestly they're both Douchbags that have temper problems

  • It seems that Lily is quite a bitch. But that's to be expected with hollywood stars. I've watched some other vids of this filming, and she acts like a total unreasonable bitch.

    But! David is the director, he's the person who's bringing this whole movie together. If there is ANYONE in this production who needs to keep it together, it's the director! The way he acted here was terrible and completely unreasonable. She may be a bitch, but this was NOT the solution to the problem.

  • He spent THREE years working in this turd? He should yell at himself.

  • It's hilarious seeing and hearing creative types throwing huge hissy fits ....in such a situation, I derive real pleasure by winding them up even further (and I have certainly worked with quite a few people who behave just like this)

  • love the way jason S just sits there with his leg up the whole time. just fucking watching the madness

  • I would've smacked the shit out of Russell had I been there.

    I think Jason Schwartzman is the actor in the seat, and he's a major pussy for not doing anything.

    Screw it if it's your boss, she might've been in danger!

  • Fuck that shit, she was being a cunt during the entire production and he finally blew up.

  • The things he said were out of line in any context. It's raw disrespect to another human, and specifically degrading a woman.

    Also disturbing is his physical violence. I would have stepped in when he got close to her, I don't care if I lost my job. If they want to argue, they can argue, but he was close to a physical attack. He was on a very low-level of mental functioning, akin to an animal. Someone needed to step in and declare to everyone in the room that that behaviour is not acceptable

  • Wah wah wah, he didn't fucking touch her. She has always had a reputation for being a pain in the ass.

  • Oh aren't you a hero.

  • That guy is a Douchebag!

    I don't get you people who are trying to blame Lily for his temper!

    Get real!!

  • Give David a break, guys. He lost his temper. that's what some people do when they get mad. He was trying to help her and she didn't want it. Even though she's right, you shouldn't argue or disagree with a director. Let him do his job.

  • 1:17

    Poor girl by the door!! She Could have got hurt cus of this guys Hissy Fit! I get that he's angry but throwin things is taking it way too far!

  • DID I EVER FUCKING YELL AT YOU BEFORE RIGHT NOW!!!!!

    be taller.......

  • hahaahah! Lily needs to learn how to listen.

  • To be fair, Lily was being pretty difficult and rude also, and you don't know what happened in between the "cut." Look at it objectively. Also, she makes a few pretty smartass remarks early on.

  • I applaud Lily for keeping t together. It was very good until the fucking shoe lift thing.

  • this shit is better than the movie itself

  • I was shocked at the second part, when he started kicking and throwing things, I mean I know Lily can be as bad but he took it tooo far!
