Former CAA power broker, Michael Ovitz is probably very sorry he ever decided to do that Vanity Fair interview. "My Dinner With Ovitz" is a pithy, yet epicurean tale of broken dreams, broken Hollywood power brokers (and broken knees). Lesson to be learned: Never, never mess with "The Gay Mafia!" Written by Thee Other Steve Young 393 Hollywood uncovered! Gloriously naked for all to see, and what we see isn't very pretty...but it is pretty of funny. Watching the so-called powerful falling on their own petards is a venal pleasure, yet it also serves as a life lesson. Like a elementary school bully, Michael Ovitz used his powerful position in the Hollywood wars to step on, steal from and bad mouth whomever stood in his way of control of the schoolyard. When he loses his power the bully becomes victim and blames everyone else for his demise. As laughable is his Vanity Fair interview, incriminating of "The Gay Mafia" for his fall, "My Dinner With Ovitz" is even funnier as it rams the actual interview headlong into Coppola's "Godfather." The result is a farcical and sad truth that should make the Hollywood step-upons, stolen-froms and never-beens delighted and perhaps even a little vindicated. ea1 Written by Steven "Steve" Young
