Comments on THINGS THEY WON'T TELL YOU IN FILM SCHOOL: JULIE, FULLY LOADED

Nice post, Julie. I'm glad that D has it together. That is, after all, more important than all the work and fame.

Chuck, I have a sneaking suspicion that's more about your being a great dad than my being a great writer.

Damn it, Julie, you did it again. Brought tears to my eyes with your poignant comments on poor littlr Lindsay (I'm serious).

Julie, as usual your blog is insightful and entertaining. It's not really fair to call it a blog, as blog implies off-the-cuff writing...your entries are really more like short essays, full of astute observations and self-deprecation (which you can lay off a bit, IMHO). In short, thanks for writing.

And I get annoyed when my sons leave their dirty clothes on the floor....one is older, two are younger than her. All have more sense. I'll live with the socks.

Consider yourself linked, Marko. See how easy I am when people agree with me? Sheesh, how hard is that?

2007-05-31T13:25:00.000-07:00

I totally agree with you.
Who wouldn't want to be rich, famous and good looking?
But what you really got to do is hold on to the people who really love you (and will continue to do that no matter what). Money gets spent, fame and good looks fade away, but true friends remain.

BTW, I like your blog. If you would be interested in link exchange, you can drop me a comment at http://photo-blogging.blogspot.com/

Thanks, Wendy! Your name sounds familiar from BE. I like anything with wings in it, birds, butterflies, the eighties TV show...

Surfed here through BOTB but definitely will be heading back,love your blog *air kiss*
Lindsay is following hot on the heels of a lot of the other "child stars" only she seems to be doing in a lot more spectacular and public fashion.
I agree if Georgia Rule had done well all would be forgiven and her press right now would all be positive even as she was driving headlong into lamposts.

Hey, Doug, who you calling forty? We don't do that...

2007-05-30T12:06:00.000-07:00

Hey, Doug, who you calling forty? We don't do that here, even if we're fifty, unless we're really super mad at someone for stealing our parking spot.

2007-05-30T12:00:00.000-07:00

I'm laughing, I'm crying. As for D., she's a little iffy on all that. Let's just say I've written about her before and she was none too thrilled. It's not that she minds being written about, just that she really wants to move past being Winnie. Alas, we are all just that short of having it all.

So the real question is, how does D. feel knowing ...

2007-05-30T10:49:00.000-07:00

So the real question is, how does D. feel knowing that every American boy in the vicinity of her age had a stone-cold crush on Winnie Cooper, and therefore her?
Every time I see Lindsey Lohan I want to get her a sandwich. A big double whopper, followed by extra large fries.
If she would just eat, she could not only look more normal, but might hold her liquor better.

The saddest part is all would be forgiven had Georgia Rule done any box office.

MQ--I have never paid for a hotel room for my life. And it's not for the reason you are conjuring up right now, thank you. I used to be a travel writer. We don't pay. I'm supposed to now of course but now I couldn't afford it anyway so it doesn't really matter. Does that answer your question, dear?

2007-05-30T08:18:00.000-07:00

I wish you all of that at 40. I'd have wished it for you at 20 but I didn't know you then.

"The people who truly run Hollywood do so on the sheer force of our undying desperation, fueled by those big dreams and persistent passions even protracted failure can't quite seem to tamp down."

Nicely put. Where would all those stars be without a horde of people worshipping their every move in the not-so-secret hopes that we could be them one day?

2007-05-30T06:38:00.000-07:00

I agree. That poor girl is a mess, and I don't think any of her "people" do much more than defend and enable her. It's sad.

2007-05-30T05:08:00.000-07:00

Just curious J, but what does a night at the Chateau cost these days? I wouldn't mind spending one night there and soak up the _____ (insert fave here)

2007-05-29T23:57:00.000-07:00

My wife worked as a PA for a very famous songwriter, known for her schlocky love songs that get into your brain and never leave. One evening, they were driving Lohan's mom home around two in the morning, and lo and behold, her six year old was still up and about, running around the place like it was normal for him to be up. And just like she dismisses her daughter's behavior as always being someone else's fault, I bet that this little kid is going to follow the same path as Lindsay. Makes that Morgan Creek guy even more of a hero doesn't it?
