COLIN POWELL TASERED IN SHREVEPORT?
"Josh Brolin, who plays the US president for Stone, and Jeffrey Wright, who portrays Colin Powell, were arrested in the small hours of Saturday morning outside a bar in Shreveport, Louisiana. The film has been shooting there for months.
Brolin, Wright and five other members of the film crew were released after posting bail. But witnesses present at the bar fight are now alleging that the arrest spiraled out of control.
Police used pepper spray on Brolin as he tried in vain to stop the altercation, the entertainment website TMZ reported. Police also used a taser gun on Wright, according to the Louisiana TV station KTBS.
One witness told KTBS that police hurled a racial slur at Wright, a black actor known for his role in Casino Royale. Cell phone video of the arrest has reportedly been given to lawyers for the actors."
My not terribly serious question about this incident is where the hell was Oliver Stone when this was going down? Hanging out with Fidel? Hatching conspiracy theories? Having wet dreams about the Doors? He shoulda been there, his style is quite taser like, after all....
Perhaps Josh was still in character and misspokeifacated.
