A court ruled today that Kathleen Turner is full of shit and must apologize to her former costar Nicolas Cage for accusing him of being a drunk dog-napper. In Turner's tell-all "Send Yourself Roses," the actress complained about many, many, many people”¦ for many, many, many pages. And Turner didn't hold back”¦ especially when it came to actor Nicolas Cage.

"Another co-star who left a lot to be desired was Nicolas Cage, who played my boyfriend and husband in Peggy Sue Got Married, about an unhappily married woman who jumps back in time to her high-school days.

Now, Nicolas happens to be the nephew of Francis Ford Coppola, who was directing the film. And my contrary co-star was absolutely determined to prove that he wasn't there as the result of nepotism.
So, everything Francis wanted him to do, he went against - to show that he wasn't under his uncle's wing. Which was ridiculous. Oh, that stupid voice of his and the fake teeth! Honestly, I cringe to think about it.
He caused so many problems. He was arrested twice for drunk-driving and, I think, once for stealing a dog. He'd come across a chihuahua he liked and stuck it in his jacket."

Lawyers for Cage said the allegations were false and "caused damage to the claimant's personal and professional reputation."

The ruling also said Turner is responsible for Cage's legal fees and that she is to also make a "substantial" donation to charity.
