Ever wanted to see a high class A-list Hollywood argument? Wondered what happens when the claws come out? Well, read on... I stumbled across this nuggetty gem on Wikipedia whilst trying to find out who directed the film, I Heart Huckabees. The answer was David Russell, but that's beside the point. Whilst reading up on the film I noticed some references to "tension on the set". How could I not investigate further?

It would seem that there was indeed some tension on the set between the Director and Lily Tomlin. Fortunately for us, some of this tension was captured on film. Naturally, as most things do these days, the footage ended up on the internet, and then YouTube.

This first clip involves Lily Tomlin flipping out over some "directorial issues" and getting a teensy bit worked up. So much so that she tells Dustin Hoffman and Naomi Watts to... ah... just watch the clip.

Warning: Contains adult themes and some coarse language.

The second clip involves Lily Tomlin kicking up a stink due to further "directorial issues" prior to the Director coming in to throw his own tantrum.

Don't let that put you off though, I Heart Huckabees is a great film, and well worth a look. It can be either deep and meaningful, or just light weight entertainment, how you view it is up to you. Next time I watch it though, I'll be making sure I keep an eye out to see if any of the on set tension made its way into the final product.

In closing, nothing could sum up this whole sage as well as the following clip...
