Richard Dreyfuss suing his dad and uncle

[Lefty]

Does this surprise anyone? I guess it doesn't because money makes people due some dumb things. I think Richard has made a lot of money in his life to forget about a 24 year-old loan. Family should always come first, even when money is involved.

The price of the aggravation and mental grief involved in suing his family should surpass 800K easily.

To me anyway.

I doubt this is about the money and all about Dreyfuss wanting access to his uncle's financials. Sounds like Dreyfuss just wants proof -- for himself or whomever -- that his own family took him for a ride. I'm guessing whatever his uncle spent the money on, it wasn't all about a building. And that much money in 1984 would've hurt any actor not named Harrison Ford.

Or Pee-Wee Herman

Yup. The records seem to be the key to this deal, not the money.

So he gets the records? So what? If he really was ripped off that much, wouldn't he already know it?

No joke. He wants the rest of the world to know it. Ironic as most celebrities try to stay out of the spotlight.

I suppose interest and puni's might make it worth it, but fraud is hard to prove.
