I’m not sure whether the dispute was about the role or about the salary that comes with the role. who knows what went on behind the scenes though… I guess it’s never easy for a relatively young/hip/new director to direct someone as a-list and celeb as deNiro, especially if you’re casting such as star in a “minor” role for low pay… I dunno… I think Jackie Brown was cast fine. even though I hated Jackson’s fashion style he was sporting and I don’t get why Jackie and Max didn’t really hook up. Jeez, both are way too old to be single. and they had money… weirdos…
