Story summary

In a recent interview with Variety, Sharon Stone discussed her 1995 film "Sliver," where she played a book editor who becomes involved in a mysterious luxury Manhattan building. Stone criticized the dialogue, saying it was written by a man "without enough to do." She mentioned that after filming "Sliver," she banned anyone from mentioning the title due to its poor quality.

Billy Baldwin, Stone's co-star in "Sliver" and also 63, had previously commented on the film during an interview with the "Lisa Guerrero Unleashed" podcast. He recalled initial good relations but later tension between him and Stone. The film was based on Ira Levin’s novel and received critical pans upon release.

Despite the negative reception of "Sliver," Stone's career recovered two years later when she starred in Martin Scorsese's "Casino," earning her first and only Oscar nomination.
