    Sounds great - hope they can finish it. Somehow that seems like a major uphill battle with two of Hollywood's most volatile personalities (David O. Russell - who had several falling outs with Three Kings cast, and Christian Bale... hopefully Russell keeps the extra and crew out of his shot). lol we'll see what happens - this project sounds good!!!
