Before I begin this little recommendation, I would like to stress that I know nothing at all about the business issues involved in the aquisition by Ronald Tutor of Miramax Films from Disney. My only interest in this matter is to pass along to you this morning one of the most juicy examples of executive viciousness I've seen in quite some time.
We become used to veiled utterances from our statesmen, business people and politicians. So it's rare and somewhat welcome to see a kingpin unleash a world of hurt on a former associate, and to study how it's done. The honcho in this instance is said Ronald Tutor, a construction magnate who runs Tutor Perini, #432 on the FORTUNE 500. He is also now a film mogul, too, having entered the business with a partner by the name of David Bergstein. Bergstein will not apparently be part of Tutor's plans for Miramax going forward, however, a fact made clear in this remarkable interview, which appeared on the front page of today's Hollywood Reporter.
