The Verdict – Keanu Reeves does not owe paparazzo

Posted by | Posted in Hollywood News, Movies | Posted on 14-11-2008

Recently Keanu Reeves has been sued for the reason of hitting a paparazzo with his Porsche, which causes the paparazzo to fall and injure his left wrist. However, according to the jury, actor Keanu Reeves will not have to pay the said photographer.
The story stated below:
In Los Angeles, “The Matrix” star Keanu Reeves got the excellent outcome when the jury says the he does not owe even a single penny to the paparazzo that sued him.
On Monday November 3, 2008, actor Keanu Reeves was held not responsible for the paparazzo’s alleged injuries. The deliberation took in less than three hours that eventually made the jurors unanimously rejected the civil lawsuit filed by the photographer against Keanu Reeves, and Alison Silva has asked the jury to give him $711,974, which includes medical bills, lost wages and punitive damages.
Silva said the reporters outside the Los Angels County Superior Court that he respect the jury’s decision and that is what they are there for since day one. He further said that despite of the jury’s decision, he would continue his job as a paparazzo. When Silva was asked if he would ever take a photo of Keanu, again he brightly said “Why not? It’s business.” According to him, he had nothing against Keanu and he wishes of its happiness in life.
Silva’s claim include about “The Matrix,” “Speed” and “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure” star Keanu Reeves struck him with the star’s Porsche in March of 2007, which causes him to fall and eventually injure his left wrist.
During the hearing, Jurors have clearly heard how contradicting Silva’s statement was about the incident. They even have the chance to see a video of the paparazzo using his supposedly or shall we say claimed damaged wrist scaling down a chain link fence after getting a video of Britney Spears.
Keanu Reeves’ attorney Alfred Gerisch said after the verdict that it is obvious from the very beginning that Mr. Reeves is not negligent. However, unfortunately, a lawsuit was brought and they eventually came out this far with a lot of time and effort wasted and of course a lot of money too.
Keanu was on the courthouse’s cafeteria on the roof while waiting for the verdict; however, he declined to comment after the decision was read.
The case attorneys issued closing arguments on Friday and the jury did deliberate for about five minutes before leaving for the weekend. The following Monday job resumed and all of the 12 jurors decided to reject the case. It was in the law of California that during civil trials, only nine jurors are required to agree.
The panel of jurors is composed of six men and six women and was decidedly a Hollywood gang. One of them claimed to be an animator for “The Simpsons,” other claims that had helped in coordinating for movie shoots in public parks. A pair of actresses, and a former voice-over artist had been eliminated from the jury pool.
During the five-day trial, Reeves was always on the courtroom and occasionally found discussing with his lawyers and signing autographs in the lobby.

More violent James Bond makes Roger Moore dislikes it

Quantum of Solace is the latest James Bond Movie. Despite of it being the known James Bond who are always presenting of the latest hi-tech gadgets, former agent007 Roger Moore dislikes it due to the scenes that’s getting more and more violent, which is far way different when it was Roger Moore that played being the super spy with a tongue-in-cheek humor.

Moore said that he is happy of being part of it but was saddened also that the wonderful family movie turned out to be so violent already. According to Roger Moore, it seems like this is what the movie goers are wanted and it was being proved by the box office figures the Quantum of Solace had in London when it opened on October 31, 2008.

When the bond film opened in London on October 31, it breaks the British weekend box-office record as they reach the gross of $25 million. That is just in London alone. When the worldwide sales are being recognized, the bond film has reached a gross of $106 million so far.

In his 1985 Bond movie “A View to a Kill”, the 85 years old Moore recalled being horrified of its violence. This bond film was his last of seven wherein he played Bond.

It has been known that Roger Moore has written a book and he writes about his distaste for guns since his friend with a BB gun shot him in the leg when he was still a teenager.

He had written further that during the making of “The Man with the Golden Gun,” his director Guy Hamilton wanted Bond to be tougher. In order to get information, the director wanted him to threaten Maud Adam’s character’s arm to break. Moore said that this characterization does not sit well with him; however, Guy was eager to make Bond a little crueler.

Since Moore does not want cruelty, he suggested that to get information, Bond would charm her by bedding her first. Generally, Bond was a lover and a giggler. However, Moore went along with Guy.

Even though the former Bond star haven’t seen Quantum of Solace yet, he is sure that it will be a success in North America too, since Craig’s first Bond film which is the Casino Royale, hits the market.
As to with Moore’s legacy as an actor, he was mostly known for playing Bond and playing in some TV series like The Saint and The Persuaders with Tony Curtis. According to Moore, being remembered as one of the leers or the hamlets is what he wanted the most. However, since it is not going to happen, he is already happy for playing Bond.

Moore’s records are full of story about Hollywood and the stars that he used to worked with like Vivien Leigh, Mae West and Lana Turner. He also mentioned about his bust-up with Grace Jones during the shoot of A view to a Kill, wherein he forcibly pulled the plug on her stereo and throws a chair against the wall because she was playing rock music aloud.
