Liz and Dick Is Going to Be An Amazing Film

From The National Enquirer via Celebitchy:

Lindsay Lohan has been a nightmare on the set of ‘Liz & Dick’ and everyone is working round-the-clock to finish the film before she self-destructs, sources say. Lohan is often late, can’t concentrate and flubs her lines, insiders say.

“Most days she shows up two hours late and she rarely knows her lines. A production assistant has to feed them to her,” said a set insider. “She’s completely unfocused and she keeps running over to the director, but he doesn’t have a clue how to handle her. The footage so far has been just awful.”

Meanwhile, the film’s producer Larry A. Thompson is trying to keep his concerns in check, said the insider.

“He had a hell of a time obtaining insurance for the shoot and is on tenterhooks every day that something is going to happen to Lindsay,” explained the insider. “If that’s the case, they’ll have to shut down the production!”

The producer said he was forced to buy pricey insurance for Lindsay since she’s done five different stints in drug rehab. Filmmakers cringed when Lindsay slammed her Porsche into a truck on June 8, and the accident is being investigated and it could lead to her probation being revoked.

Said the insider: “If the judge rules that she violated her parole and sends her to jail, Lifetime is looking at a $5 to $6 million washout.”

Stop. Ol’ Flop Lip is being unprofessional? I don’t believe it for a minute! Except I definitely believe it, because I’ve been in high school plays that were more professional than this. I don’t care who you are, if you can’t even learn your lines, then you shouldn’t get acting jobs, and if you have to go through this much trouble to have an actress in your film, she better know all of her lines verbatim and be able to deliver them beautifully. Of course, we all know that’s not the way that Hollywood works, but wouldn’t it be great if it was?
