"Fast Times" Director Convicts Phil Spector

Posted Jul 9th 2007 12:36PM by TMZ Staff

"Fast Times at Ridgemont High" director Amy Heckerling doesn't need a Hollywood ending to the ongoing Phil Spector/Lana Clarkson murder trial -- as far as she's concerned -- he did it! Hey bud, you're guilty!
Amy Heckerling vs. Phil Spector
After being introduced by good friend Drew Barrymore at a "Fast Times" screening at L.A.'s Hollywood Forever Cemetery on Saturday, Hecklerling raved about the late Lana Clarkson, who appears as an extra in the film, before saying, "...and then Phil Spector killed her ... allegedly." End scene! While the comment was received with shocked laughter by the capacity crowd, Heckerling humorously added, " But everyone else in it (the movie) is doing fine." Paging Phoebe Cates!

Spector is currenty on trial for allegedly fatally shooting Lana Clarkson in 2003. Clarkson is buried at Hollywood Forever Cemetery.

After directing the 1982 hit film which launched the teen-sex comedy genre, Heckerling went on to make "European Vacation" and "Clueless."

12. He's guilty & I hope he doesn't get off as he hired the best DNA experts that money can buy. It does make me wonder about the testimony of some of these experts. This girl did not commit suicide.

15. She wasnt exactly an extra. She has a credited role that stands out and if you've seen the movie you noticed her.

Phoebe Cates IS doing fine. Why would you page her? She married Kevin Kline almost 20 years ago and pretty much retired soon after. She works when she wants to but obviously doesnt need to and has other interests.
