Dir. David O. Russell Freakout

I Heart Huckabee is one of my all-time favorite movies. The characters are amazing and it is fantastically written. I recently found this clip of the director, David O. Russell, freaking out on the set during filming. Someone from the film crew leaked this footage onto youtube last year. I can’t believe it. Poor Jason Schwartzman, Lily Tomlin, and Dustin Hoffman look so uncomfortable while this guy has a full-blown tantrum. He looks like an upset third grader with a severe mood disorder.

For those of you who haven’t seen I Heart Huckabee, don't let this clip steer you away. I still highly encourage you to see this film. Just assume, as I have, that Dave Russell forgot to take his medication on the day of this embarrassing outburst. Caution – the clip includes a litany of expletives from multiple parties involved.
