    What's the significance of the line where Tori talks about almost wanting to slap Oliver Stone? Did she meet him at a party and he said something that pissed her off or something? Just seems curious since politically they both seem partial to the left so I don't know why she would be so annoyed with him.
    Just curious, I'm sure this has been discussed before. Any input would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Director Oliver Stone met with singer Tori Amos and openly offered her the part of Mallory. Early in her career Amos had been pursing acting as well as singing. She was interested until he explained he also wanted to have her song "Me and a Gun" play
    during each scene where Mallory kills someone. The song is an a capella account of Amos' real life rape. In response Amos slapped him across the face and stormed out. Amos details this story in her autobiography "All These Years". She also references the
    incident in her hit song "A Sorta Fairytale," with the lyric: "Feel better with Oliver Stone until I almost smacked him; it seemed right that night." http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110632/trivia
