Well golly gee, isn’t that a nice picture right there? Looks, you know, exactly like Hollywood legend Liz Taylor. Honestly, guys, I don’t think the executives at Lifetime could have cast a better actress in this obviously pivotal role.
Also, have you heard? Lindsay went and got ‘Liz & Dick’ in trouble with some Hollywood unions. How, you’re wondering, I’m sure? Well it’s not for looking nothing like Liz Taylor, and it’s not even for driving and wrecking a Porsche when being behind the wheel was a big no-no to begin with. Nope, Lindsay’s got ‘Liz & Dick’ in trouble because she blamed her emergency services call for “exhaustion” due to working insanely long production days. From CBS News:
Two Hollywood unions are scrutinizing worker safety and welfare on Lindsay Lohan’s TV movie “Liz & Dick” after the actress tweeted that she was exhausted because of long production days.
Larry A. Thompson, the producer of the Lifetime movie, said Wednesday that no violations were found in one union’s review.
The Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists confirmed its representatives visited the production. SAG-AFTRA said it “will continue to visit” to enforce guild rules.
“We have spoken with representatives from the company, and they are fully aware of their contractual obligations. We will ensure that all applicable penalties will be paid,” the guild said in a statement.
IATSE, the stage employees union, said it’s keeping a watchful eye on the production’s working conditions.
“We have had union representatives on the set since last Friday and will continue to monitor the hours and working conditions there,” said Mike Miller, IATSE’s division director for movie and TV production.
In a statement, Thompson said a SAG-AFTRA representative “was totally fine with everything” she found during shooting Tuesday at a Los Angeles estate. He was told there had been no complaints from guild members and that the visit was prompted by “tweets and comments in the media,” he said.
‘Liz & Dick’ is supposed to wrap sometime the end of this month and I’m not gonna lie: I just cannot wait to see what’s next for Lindsay. This is going to be the best movie EVER.
The “long hours” they’re working on set are almost ENTIRELY her fault. She shows up hours late, and runs off for 15-20 minute smoke breaks just about every time they call cut. The other actors don’t seem to be showing up unresponsive in their hotel rooms, so, gee, I wonder how they manage to beat the “exhaustion.”
Is it bad that I absolutely cannot wait to see this movie? I know my girlfriends and I will have the time of our lives drinking a couple of bottles of wine and laughing at what a hilarious travesty this tv movie is SURE to be.
F yas, let’s make it a drinking game. sip and/or guzzle every time blohan’s eyes glaze over mid sentence and/or her lips puff out in a jolie-wannabe type way. we are gunna wake up drunk the morning after – YOU KNOW THIS.
