Disturbing. Charlie Sheen is showing Joaquin Phoenix how to do crazy properly.
A 1996 Sports Illustrated blurb mentioned that Charlie Sheen wanted to catch a home run ball so at an Angels game he bought out 2,615 seats in the left-side of the outfield for just him and three of his friends.
"I didn't want to crawl over the paying public," said Sheen, the hell-raising star of Hot Shots! Part Deux and other cinematic landmarks, in explaining why he bought up the 2,615 seats. "I wanted to avoid the violence." Alas, no one homered and the Sheen crew went ball-less.

Love Scott:
I don’t know if I’d go that far, but the movie does have the advantages of 1) being more an actor’s movie than its rival, with an established cast of non-American thespians; 2) being a costume drama set during the rise of Nazism; 3) being the story of someone struggling with a disability; and 4) being a hit with critics and audiences alike. To put it in mathematical if perhaps cynical terms: Hitler + handicap + Shakespeare + $100 million = best picture.
Today's rainy weather in New York City reminds me of the umbrella cat that made the rounds a few weeks ago.
