In one such case, when Mr. Eisner was head of Paramount Pictures in the early 1980's, he got into an argument with his friend, the producer Larry Gordon, over whether Mr. Gordon could take the project "Streets of Fire" to Universal Pictures, which had agreed to finance it. When Mr. Eisner learned the project went to Universal, he refused to speak to Mr. Gordon, going so far as to jump off a dock with his shoes on when he saw Mr. Gordon approaching the lake at a summer camp their two sons were attending.Anyway, this movie is just dying to be made, at least on the USA Network, though HBO would do a classier job with it. Treat Williams could play Mike Ovitz again...as for men to play Eisner and Bob Iger, all middle-aged white men sorta look the same to us, so maybe it's time to go to Fametracker's Hey, It's That Guy!.
