Disorder among Wolf's stars.

    Who Called The Shots on The Bourne Supremacy

    Last Sunday's New York Post included an interview with director Doug Liman in which he claims that he didn't direct the sequel to his own The Bourne Identity because "I personally hated the script."

    But a source who knows Liman from way back gives a simpler explanation. "Matt Damon pushed him off of it. Liman was constantly showing up on the set [of the first film] without even a shot list and no real idea of what he was doing. Damon wanted to make sure the sequel shoot went smoothly."

    Bollywood Values

    Conservatives in this country like to decry the immorality of Hollywood. Maybe it's a good thing they don't live in India. A rich married investment banker, who is from the subcontinent and specializes in Indian equities, reported to Dope Peddler that he's slept with quite a few B- and C- level Bollywood stars who are at least moderately well-known there-and it wasn't his balding looks that did the trick, so to speak. These actresses are women on the level of, say, Catherine Keener. They aren't big stars, but plenty of people have heard of them.

    "The sums involved," he says, "are surprisingly small. In some cases, $2,500 will do it. It's interesting, because a lot of them play women in the movies who are religious figures, and they're supposed to be sweet, wholesome, virginal. But believe me, the affairs aren't all that hard to arrange if you know who to talk to."

    The actresses, he explains, have film roles, fans and fan clubs. But it's just not considered all that strange for such women to supplement their salaries in the manner of 19th-century courtesans.

    Just Asking

    Which "Law and Order: SVU" star is getting on coworkers' nerves through hissy fits and possibly related coke abuse?

    Which other star of a Dick Wolf?produced tv show was keeping a mistress in the Tribeca Grand Hotel while the terms of his divorce were being worked out-only to be dumped by the kept woman, a beautiful brunette actress, as soon as his lawyers had resolved matters with the wife?
