[Obscure cult film reference]Shakes the Clown II: Meet My Family begins filming in June on location in Jersey City. Courtney Love wasn’t required to read for the part. Bobcat Goldwaithe, who plays Shakes, said in an interview with E.T., "We wrote the part explicitly for Courtney. No one else was ever considered for the film role of my ex-wife, Lucinda: the conniving ex-wife from hell. In the movie she attempts to kill me and my current wife Hortense, played by Cameron Mannheim. Who else in Hollywood could capture the essence of a drunken whoring ex-clown trying to recapture days gone by, if not Courtney?" [/Obscure cult film reference]
