In response to yesterday’s “Anderson Ducking Cannes Journos” story, a certain HE “friendo” asked, “Isn’t it obvious that Wes doesn’t want to be asked questions about Scott Rudin?”
To which I responded, “I guess so, now that you mention it.
“If I were Anderson and that were to come up. I would just say ‘sorry but I’m not going to comment about Scott. He’s always been a first-rate producer and a total professional with me. I’m very sorry about the reports of abusive behavior directed toward his staffers but that’s not my responsibility and I’m certainly not going to get into it here in Cannes.”
