"No apologies will be sent at any time for any reason. That is my position."
November 6th, 2011- Val Kilmer to The Sunday Mail News
Twain was scathingly critical of Baker Eddy in his lifetime.
"In my story Mark Twain was very mean to Mrs Eddy in the press but he said privately to his daughter that he was really sorry, he really liked her and he really wanted to meet her, so in my movie - he never met her in real life - he does meet her and he apologizes, so it's a kind of a reconciliation that I think is necessary for our mortal man with the immortal man."
This kind of hypocrisy just drives me nuts. Without telling you any details about the situation except that the apology was for something that occurred while we were both working in different functions on a movie in Ohio this summer, you can easily see the hypocrisy.
And that line from Val to me about not apologizing was just one line from a long email in which he could have just written the words "I apologize" about 20 times, instead of explaining at length why he absolutely will not apologize to me now or in the future.
I mean, it could have been something small like spilling hot lasagna on me at the Kraft service table or something major that actually did damage to me professionally but either way he is refusing to apologize now or ever for any of it.
