Today's Blind Items - The Commentary

 Back in the early 2000's when there was such a thing as the DVD, there were also commentaries. The mostly provided banal insight and humble bragging, but occasionally you would get interesting tidbits like the fact that this disgraced A- list mostly television actor (#1) was absolutely hated by a director of this college movie. Oh, or the fact this foreign born A+ list alliterate actor (#2) decided to skip the recording of the commentary because he was too big for it and the rest of the cast trashed him for it. There was the time this A+ list mostly movie actor (#3) made fun of cancer patients. One of the best though, was this movie that was not widely viewed and the DVD probably less so. A small role in the movie went to this now A list alliterate actress (#4) who is an Oscar winner/nominee. When she appears on screen, the director starts laughing and tells a story about how she “got the role”, talks about how she came over to his apartment, and outright says he casting couched her.
