Some Info on New Stuff From David O. Russell

Some tidbits to be found in an article from Variety, mainly this:
The “Three Kings” director, who last helmed “I Heart Huckabees,” spent 2008 filming “Nailed,” the Jake Gyllenhaal-Jessica Biel romantic comedy that halted several times during shooting because of a financial shortfall by the film’s financier, Capitol Films.
Russell is next expected to direct Matthew McConaughey in “The Grackle,” a raucous comedy that is being produced by McConaughey’s jk livin’ banner and casts the actor as a barroom brawler who uses his skills to settle disputes for people who can’t afford a lawyer.
-Always interested to see what this talented director has in store for us.

  2. David O Russell is supposed to be a complete "@*%#
    I think it might be on youtube, but there's this clip when filming i heart huckabees, where he didnt realise the camera wasn't switched off.
    MASSIVE ATTACK on Lily Tomlin, Dustin Hoffman didnt know how to react, really unnecessary.
