“frankly, he’s nuts.”
Well, some people who were nuts made some pretty good movies. Orson Welles comes to mind.
For some reason Hollywood actors and nuttiness is like flies on you-know-what. Orson Wells, I’ve heard, was a Hitler fan until that became unpopular. So were a lot of America’s leftists, until like everything they realize later was a mistake, pretended they were never involved.
