What are they trying to hide? Or are they just trying to prove that they are asses?

DiCaprio, Maguire Sued Over Indie Film
2 hours, 43 minutes ago Movies - AP
LOS ANGELES - Leonardo DiCaprio (news) and Tobey Maguire have been sued by a producer who claims the two actors blocked distribution of a 1995 independent film they starred in.

John Schindler says the actors warned potential distributors that DiCaprio wouldn't work with them on other projects if they released "Don's Plum," a low-budget, black-and-white film about a group of friends hanging out at a diner. The Superior Court complaint, filed Friday, seeks $38 million and unspecified damages.
DiCaprio's publicist, Ken Sunshine, had no comment, according to a spokesman in Sunshine's office. A call to Maguire's publicist, Kelly Bush, wasn't immediately returned Monday morning.
In 1999, DiCaprio and Maguire settled a $10 million lawsuit with another producer who accused them of using DiCaprio's superstar status to prevent the movie's release.
The agreement with producer David Stutman allowed for distribution outside the United States, Canada and the countries' territories.
The actors have said they made the film as a "favor to a friend" and did so under the agreement that it would never be promoted as a feature-length movie.
