- Although his picture _An Alan Smithee Film: Burn Hollywood Burn (1997)_ (qv) was a commercial and critical disappointment, Idle has been asked for 'Alan Smithee' (qv)'s "autograph" in real life...and consented (Smithee was the nonexistent, pseudonymous director whom Idle "portrayed" in said movie).
