Dоuglаs is а fаmоus independent film directоr who makes low-budget art films using digital cameras, little known actors, and a small production company. Douglas went to Greentown to scout for amateur actors as well as locations for his next film. At the local diner, Douglas ran into Penner, a very attractive and charismatic person with a lot of stage presence and personality. Douglas told Penner: “You are just right to be in my next film. I would like to sign you up to act for me. Could we meet somewhere and go over the terms of a possible contract?” Penner agreed to meet Douglas and invited Douglas to Penner’s home to discuss a possible acting contract. Douglas came over that evening with a written contract in hand. The contract said it was a contract for part-time employment as a staff person and actor for the making of the film “Greentown Blues” that would be directed, produced, and filmed by Douglas. The compensation was $50 per hour plus expenses. There were also many boilerplate clauses, including a clause that said “this written contract is intended as the fully integrated and complete contract of the parties. There will be no additional terms.” It also described the work as: “Anything and everything the Director asks you to do or provide, so long as it is not against the law.” The duration was specified as eighteen months. While Penner was reading the contract, Douglas looked around Penner’s house and said, “you know, I would like to rent this house for the movie. We would use it for a few hours here or there over the next eighteen months or so. I’ll throw in another $500 a month for the house. Call it an expense under the contract.” Penner agreed and signed the employment contract. Filming did occur. Penner worked 100 hours for Douglas but the filming only took three months, not eighteen. The house was used in the first two months of filming, but not after. Douglas gave Penner $6,000 and went back to Hollywood. Penner wrote to Douglas asking for the rest of the 18 months’ rent, which Penner said was $8,000. Douglas denied owing anything more than he had already paid.
