I dunno, to me the director looks like a spoiled asshole. Besides, as Freidrich notes, being unprofessional.
I tend to subscribe to an old-fashioned theory that it is terribly rude and a sign of bad upbringing, when a younger person opens his dirty mouth on a older one, especially if the older one is a woman. I have a feeling if Ms.Tomlin wasn't in the in the position of an inferior employee, I expect she would be totally justified if she smack the nasty bastard upside the head and kicked him silly.
It looks like he used to be one of those public-nuisance yuppie kids that throw tantrums in restaurants and everybody act absent instead of teaching the kids manners...

Sorry, Cody, but word on Russell being a lunatic is well-established. Who knows who was dishing the dirty talk first, but I know enough about Ms. Tomlin (a patron of friends of mine) to know if she blew, things had to be egregious.

And yes, FvB--that is, in fact, the director's job on a set (in addition to establishing tone).

The footage is from the video assist, which gets a feed from the camera. That way, on a film shoot, the director (or studio flunkies, or whomever) can review takes on the set, and decide what needs to be printed, what can be tossed, what needs another take.

I kind of like the remix.
