NIC CAGE WILL GET DRUNK, STEAL YOUR DOG

Both the New York Post and the Daily Mail have excerpts today from the new autobiography by Kathleen Turner, where she seemingly complains for 800 pages about everyone she's ever met.  Very high up on her list of people to bad mouth is Nic Cage: 

"Another co-star who left a lot to be desired was Nicolas Cage, who played my boyfriend and husband in Peggy Sue Got Married, about an unhappily married woman who jumps back in time to her high-school days.Now, Nicolas happens to be the nephew of Francis Ford Coppola, who was directing the film. And my contrary co-star was absolutely determined to prove that he wasn't there as the result of nepotism.So, everything Francis wanted him to do, he went against – to show that he wasn't under his uncle's wing. Which was ridiculous. Oh, that stupid voice of his and the fake teeth! Honestly, I cringe to think about it.He caused so many problems. He was arrested twice for drunk-driving and, I think, once for stealing a dog. He'd come across a chihuahua he liked and stuck it in his jacket.On the last night of filming, he came into my trailer after he'd clearly been drinking heavily. He fell on his knees and asked if I could ever forgive him. I said, "Not right now. I have a scene to shoot. Excuse me," and just walked out.Nicolas didn't manage to kill the film, but he didn't add a lot to it, either. For years, whenever I saw him, he'd apologise for his behaviour. I'd say: "Look, I'm way over it." But I haven't pursued the idea of working with him again."

Whatever.  When asked for a comment, Nic Cage said, "Who?  Oh I think she's dead.  Yeah, she died in like 1984.  She was 92-years-young, god bless her."  Actually she's very much alive.  Or whatever it is doctors call this and this. There was an evening gown picture too with straps so thick you could hang a cow with it.  That's not coincidence.
