Sedgwick says this was around the time she starred in the 1989 movie “Born on the Fourth of July” with Cruise and that her husband, Kevin Bacon, filmed “A Few Good Men” with him.
She told Barrymore, “I was pregnant, I was very pregnant, and we were invited to dinner. We were invited to dinner with a lot of famous people like Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, because they were in [A Few Good Men]Rob Reiner was there, it was a flow, and Nicole [Kidman] was there. It was one of those evenings that I often don’t get invited to. “
They were there to show “A Few Good Men”. Sedgwick said she couldn’t help but start poking around Cruise’s house, which of course led to trouble.
“There was a mantelpiece, like a mantelpiece, and I looked around and there was a little button under the mantelpiece. I thought, ‘Oh what’s that little button? So I pressed the little button because I thought maybe something would be interesting. To happen. Nothing happened and then I got a little nervous. ”
Cruise was halfway through the conversation when she became clear about what she had done.
“He says, ‘That’s the panic button,'” Sedgwick said. And so the police came, they had to stop the showing, they had to see Tom. I think there were more than five police cars, it was something. ‘
And she hasn’t been there since.
“I haven’t been invited back,” she said.
