Jackie Gleason blackmailed Jason Miller (priest from Exorcist) bc Jason was unfaithful to Jackie's daughter.
Jason was talented and becoming more successful in Hollywood (That Championship Season is a 1972 play by Jason Miller. It was the recipient of the 1973 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the 1973 Tony Award for Best Play) Jason is also the father of Jason Patric (80s star) Jason Miller lived in Scranton before he died. He was a falling down drunk that was ridiculed by patrons. It was really sad. |

This is a good one! I loved Jason Patric in "The Lost Boys" |
Scranton! Born and raised there. Churches and funeral homes on every corner. |
I heard that these deaths were attributed to severe mold problems in their house. |
Don't forget the pubs on the other 2 corners! Scantonian here too. Yhat movies should be shown again. Excellent movie. |

Re: Tom Cruise
When Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes started dating, I had a friend in the entertainment industry who told me the following: Apparently everyone in Hollywood knows Tom Cruise is gay. He auditioned women to be his wife and picked Katie Holmes. They both had movies coming out and their relationship would help with publicity (Katie Holmes was not getting such amazing reviews from Batman Begins!). They had a 6 year contract. Lo and behold, after 6 years, they got divorced! |

Anthony Bourdain's suicide.
It is so hard to believe that a successful 61 year old who had surmounted so much in his life, would impulsively hang himself just before a planned dinner with a dear friend and his colleagues while in a hotel overseas. More importantly, he had a minor daughter whom he loved dearly and a good coparenting relationship with her mother. IMO, I think it was a case of autoerotic asphyxiation. I think his freewheeling and "open" relationship with Asia Argento may have had something to do with it. It seems he went off the rails a bit after he met her. Perhaps he was introduced or encouraged to use asphyxiation and it went terribly wrong for him. He was always looking for new and exciting food experiences, why not sexual? |
I am so fascinated by their divorce. I've read rumors of Katie's lawyer dad having multiple file cabinets, and her using a burner phone leading up to the filing. And wasn't it finalized in record time for a Hollywood marriage? I hope her NDA expires at some point, because that would make some book! I feel terrible for their daughter though. Apparently Tom disconnected from her completely after the divorce, but if that's how he's going to treat her, maybe it's for the best that he's out of her life. |
Um...no. |
I hope Suri is in therapy to deal with her father's desertion. It's sick. And he should be ashamed of himself. |
I've always assumed it was BJ Novak. |
Katie was actually linked to Josh Hartnett for a short time between her breakup with Chris and getting with Tom, so the speculation was that he was the father for a while, but Suri looks a LOT like Tom now. As for Tom dating a Scientologist they were grooming actress Nazanin Boniadi, who was a Scientologist, to be his next girlfriend before they went with Katie Holmes. They tell the story in Going Clear, and basically tortured her because she confided with a fellow Scientologist about it. |
The divorce took only 12 days from filing (although everything was already in place) to finish. |
From what I read about him, he was suicidal for a lot of his life. So it was amazing that he made it as long as he did. But yeah, Asia Argento was the catalyst, and she’s pretty terrible. I feel bad for his kid and ex-wife. |
