David O. Russell's 'Nailed' Suffers Fourth Shutdown, Time to Leak Those 'Nude Jessica Biel' Rumours
Posted by Defamer Hollywood at 4:25 AM on June 24, 2008
Bad news for film fans but delicious news for those of you who love DVD extras: David O. Russell's political comedy Nailed has been shut down again, for the fourth time. As per Nikki Finke, the trouble-plagued production "was shut down by IATSE on Friday for the same reasons as before: crew not getting paid," though Variety reports that filmmaking is scheduled to resume today for two more days of principal photography. As enticing as the film's synopsis sounds (Jessica Biel has nail shot into her forehead, becomes nymphomaniac) we must concur with Hollywood Elsewhere's Jeff Wells, who'd prefer to skip straight to the making-of documentary where the mercurial O. Russell calls Biel a string of nasty names she hasn't heard since Ruthie hit puberty on 7th Heaven.

I would love to have been a fly on the wall for that pitch meeting. Or was I when it was called American Psycho?

THAT is David O. Russell? I wouldn't mind nailing that. I've got a gag around here somewhere.

He should call Lily Tomlin, maybe she'd be willing to help him out.

I bet this is one of the million times when he wished his name was "David O. Selznick" instead...

Even Terry Gilliam's saying, "Now THAT's a cursed production."

Couldn't be happening to a nicer guy.
My smile would be even wider if Russell Crowe was in the cast and having to put up with this bullshit...put those two on a set and only one would stumble out alive.

Isn't this the same plot as John Waters' A Dirty Shame?
