('143315',' There are many reasons why George Lazenby (qv) only made one  appearance as James Bond. According to the DVD Documentary, here are  some of the main reasons: 1. Lazenbys youthful cockiness rankled  Albert R. Broccoli (qv)s nerves. One incident mentioned is  Lazenby skiing down the slopes on his own (resulting in the broken  arm) and a moment of arrogance on Lazenbys part that spoiled a cast  and crew party. 2. The notoriously harsh British tabloids writing up  unfavorable stories about Lazenby and how he fails to measure up to  Sean Connery (qv), thereby swaying public opinion against the  movie before it was released. One incident cited by Lazenby was  during an interview with a reporter in the commissary in which  Diana Rigg (qv) jokingly yelled from across the room "Im having  garlic for lunch, darling! I hope you are too!" This lead to an  article in which Rigg supposedly hated Lazenby so much that "She  eats garlic before love scenes". 3. Lazenby, believing that the Bond  series was over in the wake of more sophisticated films like  _Graduate, The (1967)_ (qv)and _Easy Rider (1969)_ (qv), mentioned  to his agent that he wasnt sure if he wanted to play Bond again.

Nicholson and Forman both  refused to give an inch, both believing they were right and the  other was wrong. The two months that Jack Nicholson disappeared for  was more like two weeks, and he didnt disappear. In actuality,  Nicholson spearheaded a coup among the other actors and refused to  let Forman run rehearsals, running them himself instead.
