With David O. Russell's latest film, Amsterdam, being a flop both with critics and at the box office it is fair to assume it is finally over for the director. Although making some great films, what most people don't know is how abusive of a director he was.
In this video we'll be going over all the reports of his abusive behaviour chronologically, starting with his third film with George Clooney, Three Kings. Head-butting actors, head-locking directors and reducing actresses to tears. He still continued to direct due to creating critically acclaimed and profitable films, but with these last 2 flops he might finally be out of work.
