A Film Mastermind

I want Hollywood to become the Hollywood I want — Lancelot Strelo.

His life was full of twists and turns, rebellious and unruly, overflowing with talent. No one could deny how outstanding he was. With billions at the box office in his left hand and countless trophies in his right, even the most demanding film critics had no choice but to bow their heads, let alone the countless fans around the world who worshipped him and left an indelible mark on this era.

But he was an asshole.

He was a complete asshole. He rose to fame by relying on Hollywood, yet he was Hollywood’s rebel, a hated public enemy across the whole industry. He crossed everyone’s bottom line without restraint, excited everyone’s nerves with wild abandon, challenged everyone’s authority with casual ease. His arrogance and talent were like a nightmare that would never wake.

And yet, no one could refuse him.

You have to utterly hate him to avoid falling in love with him — The New York Times
