I finally caught some of the Oprah smackdown of James Frey, it was kinda entertaining. By now we're all sick of him and his Million Little Lies, but let me add a little PS to this story - I knew what a tool that guy was years ago. My dear friend and producer Roni produced a film with Jamie (who, btw, went by the annuciation "Hi-May" back in the day), referenced in this recent LA Times article as "Bad Seed". Jamie came with the money, he got an heir to the Motorola fortune to put up a couple million to finance the film. Roni and the director (her good friend from college) were on the "creative" side of things, Jamie and his people were on the "financial" end of things. They got along like oil and water. Roni had horror stories about Jamie bringing pit bulls and strippers to the set in Seattle, yelling at people, hassling her over power and control, and being an all around jerk off. He thought he knew everything and didn't hesitate to treat people poorly.
Did James get what he deserved? It's called Karma, hell yes.
