Liza Minnelli claimed in her new memoir that Gene Hackman was “downright rude” on the set of their 1975 film Lucky Lady. In Kids, Wait Till You Hear This! — released on March 10 — the elder daughter of Judy Garland opened up about what it was like to work with Hackman behind the scenes. “I don’t like to whine, but [director] Stanley [Donen] later shared publicly that Gene was very dismissive of me during the film,” Minnelli wrote, per Entertainment Weekly. In Lucky Lady, Minnelli, 79, played Claire, a singer who promises to help two businessmen — Kibby Womack (Hackman) and Ellison Walker (Burt Reynolds), who were also best friends — smuggle alcohol from Mexico to the U.
