You don't put one over on Tommy Lee Jones, whether he's in character or in business. The actor is suing Paramount Pictures for unpaid bonuses stemming from No Country For Old Men. Jones said he was promised "significant box office bonuses" and other compensation depending on the success of the film. The 61-year-old Oscar winner was paid a reduced fee up front when he signed on for the film, and that there were known errors in his contract that weren't corrected before the movie was made. Jones wants an auditor to review financial records and determine how much he should be paid.
