I suspect you are right, but do we know for sure? He's always canoodling with this one and that one ... the latest being Terry Hatcher and Zellweiger, but he manages to dump them in short time....also seems to be drinking a lot more these days which tells me the man has demons.
Why do I expect Ray Nagin to come out at any time?
I understand that the Academy is going to give a Thalberg Lifetime Achievement Award (And about &*$&%^%#%%&#^&^^%%&!!! Time too!) to Roger Corman:
The Master of Low and No Budget Cinema!
It's tempting, but I'll just have to sit this one out. Then check some other sites to see if they have a clip of the Presentation.

"Ma! This one's for you!" At least it wasn't one of the Buttwipe Cowboy guys...
