Chronicle Of The Raven.


Just saw this movie and of course it's horrific. Faye was glorious as usual, the question is, how does a good for nothing director like this can even afford her?? Boy, I don't understand her career trajectory at all.

yes but the roles are just SO BAD, MY GOD. I don't see any other actress like that.

She may have done all those craps to raise money for Master Class. Did some of you ever see Dr. Fugazzi ? I didn't see the full film because it was so horrible. I kept asking myself, "Why in hell is she doing this?" The director/writer/leading actress was so dreadful and the script was a piece of s**t to say the least. I think Faye accepted almost every offer she received if the money was good enough. I honestly would have much preferred to see her retired since the early 1990s than to see her in all those dreadful films. Her talent is so wasted.

But what could they be paying her?? 50 thousand? I mean it's just so meaningless. And the director of Gene Generation said that apparently she even lives in a shabby house?

reply

I have a friend who worked on a movie she was almost cast in, and her fee was $100,000 a week.

Did the director of GG said that in an interview ? Do you have a link ?

reply

What movie was that and how much would she have been working?? I can't possibly believe that Chronicle of the Raven paid her that. Although the budget was a million dollars. Guess it all went to her salary?

It's on the gene generation board:

Bear in mind she lived in no Mansion. Just a house in West Hollywood squeezed between some apartment blocks. Smaller than the one me and my sound designer is working on right now. An old mitsubishi TV with VHS tape collection. Basically, I couldn't live in a place like this myself. Guess this is the lifestyle of the ex-rich and famous. Probably all the money spent on her plastic surgery and cocaine has taken a toll on her. Was I impressed? Nope. I think I like my lifestyle living in a church better...hahaha

It the film she didn't do because of her medical record, "Asphalte". She was supposed to work for 2 weeks.

The GG director is a real jerk... Faye used to live in this West Hollywood house. You can see some pics there: http://www.theagencyre.com/for-sale/901-n-spaulding-ave-west-hollywood/#2
Doesn't look like a Hollywood star mansion but it's far from being a shabby house.

What a beautiful house!! I love it. Do you know where she lives now?

And that movie I think was a more prestigious project, how much would she have been paid for Dr Fugazzi or all the other garbage?
