Nick Nolte on the floor at Lihu'e airport
Aloha from Kaua'i!
Anyone else see this article in TMZ.com (with pictures) of Nick Nolte laying flat on the floor of the terminal here in Lihu'e? Ai yi yi! If I can remember correctly it said that because his flight to the mainland was delayed, he was laying on the floor for upwards of 2 hours, drifting in and out of consciousness -- altho' they said he was friendly and talking to other passengers while he was awake -- some of whom were obviously snapping his picture! The pictures are truly sad.
They also mentioned someone "assisting him" to put a dollar bill in a vending machine for a snack -- now I certainly don't recall our airport having any types of vending machines in the boarding area -- anyone else?
He is/was here to film "Tropic Thunder" which was supposed to start shooting on Monday -- the picture of him was taken Monday -- is he through with his part already? Or just going home for a little "rest" maybe to come back later?
Anyhow -- I think it is sad that he didn't have an assistant of some type to help him -- I'm sure that either Hawaiian or Aloha would have put him into their "Premiere Club" or "Ali'i Club" lounge -- that way at least he wouldn't be laying on the floor with a bunch of photo-happy tourists!
Regardless of what you think about the man, it is sad that anyone could lay on the floor like that - be obviously "out of it" and not be assisted by anyone in that period of time.
