SECRET LIFE OF HOLLYWOOD 

Why go to the movies when you can read the newspaper? NY Times reporter David M. Halbfinger's recent piece "In Court Files, Hollywood's Mr. Fix-It at Work" includes snippets from the court case against detective-to-the-stars Anthony Pellicano. Halbfinger, along with co-reporter Allison Hope Weiner, has been shadowing the celebrity gumshoe for years. In this article, Halbfinger includes conversations that could be in any movie. Here's an exchange between Courtney Love and and Pellicano.

“Listen, Courtney, if you come to me, that’s the end of that,” Mr. Pellicano said. “My clients are my family, and that’s it.”

Ms. Love indicated her approval.

“There is no other way around it,” he said. “I’m very heavy-handed, honey.”

“I need heavy-handed, baby,” Ms. Love said. “I like talking to an Italian.”

“Sicilian, honey,” he corrected.

“Well, that’s even better.”

YOu want to know about the real secret life of hollywood, now filmmaker and studios are sitting down for 10-20 min, together to discuss making a film at Cannes, and then moving onto the next table- speed dating for films. Can you only imagine what piles of tripe will come out of these shotgun unions.
