- Description
An actor from the 'Actors' Equity' union puts a gun to his head with one hand while in the other he holds a weeping hobbit. Refers to the stand-off between Sir Peter Jackson who is trying to film 'The Hobbit' in New Zealand and the Actors' Equity union which is determined to have a collective contract for New Zealand actors. They are supported by the Australian union MEAA (Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance) who are demanding that the Hobbit production company (Warners owned, 3foot7 Ltd) enter into negotiations for a Union negotiated agreement covering all performers on the film. The situation is complicated but if not resolved the production could go to Eastern Europe.
