A screenwriter who worked with Tom Cruise in the erotic drama Eyes Wide Shut has labeled the Hollywood star an “egocentric control freak” among other things.Frederic Raphael, 91, made the claims about the actor in his new book, Last Post, in which he targeted the Mission: Impossible star’s career, links to Scientology, and his failed marriage to Aussie actress Nicole Kidman.Raphael fell out with the film’s director Stanley Kubrick in 1999, when he released his first memoir, Eyes Wide Open, where he was very critical of Kubrick’s directing style, which led to him being uninvited to the film’s premiere.Now in his new book, Raphael again slammed Kubrick and accused the Hollywood heavyweight’s wife Christiane Harlan and her brother Jan Harlan of spearheading the unflattering portrayal of him on Wikipedia.The author also roped Cruise into the drama by claiming the actor knew of the Wikipedia entry.“The Harlans and Master Cruise have managed to insert some derogatory stuff in my Wikipedia entry,” he writes, as obtained by the Daily Mail.Raphael’s claims appear to stem from the Wikipedia entry citing film critic Roger Ebert’s interview with Cruise in 1999, where he sided with Kubrick in the feud.“[Raphael] wouldn’t have written it if Stanley had been alive,” Cruise is quoted saying in the interview.“Opportunistic.
