Prize-winning actor and director Tommy Lee Jones is suing the makers of "No Country for Old Men," the 2007 West Texas crime thriller that garnered four Academy awards, claiming they have failed to pay him more than $10 million he is owed according to his contract.
But in the lawsuit, Jones argues that in December 2007 -- a month after the film's nationwide release -- Paramount representatives told him that the contract supposedly contained a "mistake," regarding "a major issue involving the deduction for home video expenses." According to the lawsuit, Jones claims company officials revealed they were aware of the supposed mistake before he signed the contract and acted in the movie and before it became a commercial success.
Gotta love those "mistakes" movie studios love to make.
I wonder if TLJ is stretching the truth on this one???
