Quaid filed a lawsuit Thursday in Los Angeles County Superior Court alleging producers got him to work cheap by falsely claiming “Brokeback” was “a low-budget, art-house film, with no prospect of making any money.”
“Yet from day one, defendants fully intended that the film would not be made on a low budget, would be given a worldwide release, and would be supported as the studio picture it always was secretly intended to be,” the lawsuit says.
Quaid agreed to waive his usual seven-figure fee and share of gross profits in favor of a much smaller payment, the lawsuit claims, although it doesn’t say how much he was paid.
Are the Quaids the ones with the old dad or is that the Baldwins…

There’s some serious disparity in the Quaid gene pool.

I’m not sure who was willing to pay Quaid the big bucks for the time. Yet, I see his point. Poor guy had to endure the countless theater goer’s “Hey, who is that?” #2) “Randy Quaid,” #1) “Ohhh, yeah. Boy, he got fat.”
