One of my favorite stories about Spielberg and how he doesn't take crap...Julia Roberts up in her Tinker Bell harness in front of a blue screen on Hook. She's having a bad time with personal issues, it's all over the press. She's dangling there, everyone's talking about the shot, Spielberg is talking with his DP. Roberts snaps. "I'M READY!" she says. Spielberg turns to her. He responds, "And I'm ready. And when he's ready, we'll all be ready."

BOOM.

Doesn't mean Bruce still wouldn't try it on.
