The Curious Career of Mercedes McCambridge. Top Story - October 2024. Content Warning.
The story goes that attending an open audition for the part of Sadie in All the King's Men (1949), Mercedes McCambridge got angry. Whilst waiting for her chance, she grew appalled with the treatment of the candidates being herded in and out of the office. She went in to meet the director furious and gave Robert Rossen a piece of her mind. She got the part, there and then, by unintentionally giving Rossen the rough edges and passion of the Sadie he wanted. For that role, her first feature film role, she went on to win an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress.

Movies of the 80s: Federico Fellini and Woody Allen in 1980
In researching Federico Fellini's 1980 film, City of Women, a lesser known piece of Fellini's canon, I stumbled upon a quote that I cannot find anywhere else that illustrates, apparently, that Federico Fellini hated Woody Allen, well before hating Woody Allen became a universal feeling. I have searched high and low for other sources regarding Fellini's feelings about Woody Allen but nothing on Google or other search engines returns any results regarding Fellini having negative feelings towards Allen before it became common cause.
