Rip Torn and Norman Mailer got into a famous, filmed fight that involved hammers and a partially bit-off ear. Richard Pryor brought a gun to the set and almost pointed it at the director of Blue Collar. Meltdowns can also come from the massive expectations put on actors in Hollywood. Shelly Duval’s fear in The Shining was real thanks to Stanley Kubrick. Gene Kelly insisted on perfect dancing from Debbie Reynolds and left her in tears.
Meltdowns occasionally get recorded and go viral. A few examples are Tom Cruise’s COVID rant and Christian Bale’s anger at having his line of sight broken. That doesn’t mean that meltdowns didn’t happen in Old Hollywood. Marilyn Monroe was a diva that didn’t listen to anyone, and Bette Davis and Joan Crawford fought for dominance.
Certain productions seem doomed from the start, and it’s as if their actors are predestined to hate each other. The cast of the doomedThe Island of Dr. Moreau fought constantly. Dennis Hopper knew Super Mario Bros. wouldn’t succeed and blew up because it was rewritten almost every day. On-set meltdowns can keep actors from working together again. Lawrence Tierney was one of the only members of the Reservoir Dogs cast who cut ties with Quentin Tarantino. Sean Connery worked with such a meticulous director on THe League of Extraordinary Gentlemen that he gave up acting altogether.
Keeping your cool is important for keeping your career. Bill Murray should have learned that before mouthing off to Lucy Lui on the set of Charlie’s Angels.
