According to an eyewitness on the set, famed director David O. Russell went on a tear against Jennifer Lawrence and Harvey Weinstein during the filming of the movie “Joy.” We’re told there was a loud argument Tuesday on the Boston set between David and Jennifer, and it started because she didn’t like the way he was directing a scene. The eyewitness says the screaming was ear-piercing and laced with profanities. A rep for the movie’s studio — Fox 2000 — tells TMZ yes, there was screaming, but it was all method acting. David was just getting J. Law amped-up for a scene in which she screams at someone. But it doesn’t end there. We’re also told Miramax honcho Harvey Weinstein showed up on the set Wednesday to say hi to Jennifer, but David ordered him to leave. Harvey got as far as the makeup trailer before getting booted.
