Film Clip Shows Dunaway Ordering Crew Member to 'Please Leave

A bit too emotional but not unreasonable in her demand

God I love her. I wish this video were still accessible online.

Never change, Faye. Never change.

The first clip is on this thread.

That's our Faye!

It was for the crew member's own safety. Had he stayed in her eyeline too long she may have been tempted to feed.

What’s the problem here!???

Please Leave!

If you need anything, ask Carol Ann.....

I love her attitude! She just takes charge in every interaction. I'm sure she'd be annoying on a daily basis though.

R9, the trouble is she’s violent and full-blown crazy. She just announced that she’s bipolar and suffers from serious mental illness.

I still have the scar above my left eye where I got nicked by a thrown VHS cassette. Didn't duck fast enough outside the Video West.

<- was the tape "Mommie Dearest"?

I saw the clip- not flattering. She has not received AFI or Kennedy Center recognitions as her body of work would otherwise merit. You have to conclude that her peers do not respect her and/or no one wants to deal with her.

Could you leave please? You're right in my eyeline.

Worked with her in the nineties for one day. She was tough but not unreasonable. Also, don’t fuck with an actor’s eyeline. She was right in that clip.

R13 Faye's not the only one

Barbara, please!!!

Please, Barbara!

The doors have to open at the same time!

She was a very beautiful young woman, and into middle age still beautiful and fit. I never understood what happened to her bottom teeth. Maybe it was genetics, but her bottom teeth became discolored in the 1980’s. That was surprising because she was so fastidious in her appearance.

This clip is hilarious. It's like a parody of a bad director at work.

R19 Her teeth were always rough- and she said so at some point-- From the 70's on, she had discolored teeth- The bottoms were always gappy and pointy-

They don’t make em like her anymore.

I love the way she inserts some laughing in the first take.

She takes it out on the crewmember after she fucked up her line.

It sounds like someone falls over in the back in the first take.

This thread is why I shell out $1.25 a month for this goddamned train wreck Of a site! Faye is DL’s North Star! Keep sailing in her dark direction.

R19 it looks like she had full caps on her upper teeth but kept her lower teeth into her 40’s, and these lower teeth shifted. With cosmetic dentistry, there is a chain of events trying to maintain veneers, caps, implants and also trying to match remaining tissue (your own teeth with newer “cast” or manufactured ones, and the remnants of supportive dental tissue under caps and veneers).

My friend elected to have full veneers, then caps, to “correct” his smile line. These needed replacement in 20 years to the day. The process required a lot of restorative work to the “nubs” that anchored these cosmetic replacements. It cost $56,000 and will need to be redone in a decade, perhaps sooner. The teeth that were first etched, then shaved down, then ground down with each phase of the cosmetic dental work, were really healthy and had no cavities. Yet over time his gums receded and then all of the supportive structures (roots and jawbones) began to change in response to the foreign material introduced over the years. It’s expensive, elective misery.

I think the real reason she dislikes and regrets Mommy Dearest is because it was type casting.

"Our eyes meet, an emotional connection - it's thrilling!"

"Fuck off, I can see you!"

Call Her Miss Dunaway

Any reason we've bumped this old story that we've already beaten to death six times over?

(When Faye dies:)

Obi-wan: “that’s it, the last of the great Hollywood cunts”

Yoda: “no, there is another” (looks at photo of LuPone)

OP your headline should read Miss Dunaway even though you are attacking me.

That crew member negotiated everything like a goddamn Hollywood agent.

No, my first name ain’t Joan, it’s Faye, Miss Dunaway if you’re nasty!

She reminds me of a friend’s Bengal Cat. The cat was very striking looking, lithe, agile, and mysterious-looking.

But every so often it would revert to this really primal behavior and “bunny kick” your forearm leaving streaks of blood and it would bite hard between your thumb and forefinger, a “death bite” meant for prey. Faye was probably like that in (or perhaps just after) her prime.

Faye frequently used 'bunny kicks' while lying on her side in the front of her BMW punting case after case of VHS cassettes from the driver's side window in the parking lot of Video West...

Just don't ever come between her and a rumaki she has in her "eyeline."

[quote] Also, don’t fuck with an actor’s eyeline. She was right in that clip.

Can confirm this. I've seen many "nice" actors get sharp when they are about to roll and some clueless below the line person is in their eye line. Not defending Dunaway in general, but this wasn't over the top

Same with Christian Bale and that famous video of him losing his shit. Bale was over the top, but the crew member had a history of fucking up actors concentration with unnecessary movement and pulling focus

“Get out of my sight! I don’t want to see any losers today!” 💅🏻 👑

I want to hear more of her voicemails.

OP This is so old

Are you senile and repeating yourself every 20 minutes?
