Around 1990, I was invited regularly to the home of a famous super agent.
I thought he was a great guy! One thing he did, for friends & clients, was having regular movie nights at his Beverly Hills home. There were drinks, food, and then a film that had yet to be released. Usually, someone at the party was in the screened flick.
These movie nights were for fun & bonding between Super Agent & his clients.
They were social & networking events, not thinly disguised business meetings.
Which is what made it so strange when this A list, or was A list at the time-actor showed up early, had a hissy fit, and wouldn’t leave!
My first reaction was: ‘His feet are tiny!’
He’s not a tall man, but I swear, he was wearing sneakers that looked like they were made for a 12 year old. His face was red with rage.
Guests started coming in, and Super Agent was trying to get the Angry Man to simmer down, out to leave & see him the next day at his office. Angry Man continued to act like a real jerk, and finally Super Agent managed to get him outside.
I’d tried to diffuse Angry myself with a casual conversation. He didn’t even turn to look at me. Just stared straight ahead. Whew! Rude!
So, when stories about Angry Man being a well known creep started coming out, I wasn’t surprised. I’m surprised there aren’t more!
I’d believe the worst about this guy. It was way too close an encounter.

ReplyDeleteI was thinking Benny Medina for the agent. Oh well.
ReplyDeleteI got the Cruise vibe, but not enough to nail anything down on this one.
