LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Sean Young has entered rehabilitation for alcohol abuse following a weekend outburst in which she was heckling from the audience at the Directors Guild of America awards.

Sean Young has entered a rehab facility for treatment of alcoholism, her PR agency said.

The 48-year-old actress was escorted from the ballroom at the Hyatt Regency in Century City Saturday night after sparring with Julian Schnabel, who was nominated for "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly."

"Actress Sean Young voluntarily admitted herself yesterday to a rehabilitation center for treatment related to alcoholism," a statement from Insignia PR said Tuesday. "It is understood that Young has struggled against the disease for many years."

At the DGAs, all of the film nominees get a chance to say a few words before the top prize is announced. Schnabel, in his trademark yellow-tinted glasses, was a bit slow to start, looking down at the podium and running his hands through his wild, curly hair.

That's when Young could be heard throughout the room urging him to get on with it. Apparently rattled, Schnabel scanned the room and asked who said that, then spotted Young and suggested that she "have another cocktail."

Then he suggested that she should finish his speech for him and started walking off the stage. Music began playing for his exit, but the audience urged him to stay and keep speaking, and he did. Young, meanwhile, was removed from the ballroom.

A call seeking comment from the Directors Guild was not immediately returned.

Joel and Ethan Coen were the winners for "No Country for Old Men."

  Harrison ham-fisted may be a replicant? I don't get it. The movie is good despite him. Watch his facial expressions, he stinks, especially the scenes with Rutger.

    Premise:
    "Special" replicants are given implanted dreams so they have a basis from which to emotionally develop a personality -- ie. think they're human with history.
    Proof:
    Implanted dream of Unicorn image that ONLY Decker knows and redreams over and over.
    Police sidekick into Origami, just happens to leave a clue that only Decker would fathom -- Unicorn left outide Decker's apartment and off-hand comment to the effect: "Too bad she (Rachel) won't live". How could sidekick know private dream unless it is in a file kept from Decker. Decker is supposed to terminate Rachel too, but won't be a hypocrite -- besides Rachel is a most becoming and suitable companion.
    Side note:
    Decker is needed to hunt down replicants, and as his candle does NOT burn twice as bright, he fits in and is tollerated.
    Rachel is a replicant too, but whose file doesn't reveal her termination time as indefinite -- Tyrell's toy.
    
    Who knows, perhaps Decker and Rachel live forever? I didn't read the book.
    Rutger Hauer was superb.

    - AH!. I wondered why the origami left outside (her?) apartment? - Duilawyer 07:22:58 01/31/08 (4)
      Hauer was great, just like in the Hitcher. Too bad he did a bunch of B movies, he could have been a big star.
      - His apartment. Rachel was staying/hiding out there... - mpathus 15:07:37 01/31/08 (1)

        ...after he introduced her to passion and release!
        
        Did a good job of it too, she was plum tuckered out by then and dreaming her own dreams for once, I guess.
        
        "Ladyhawk" was a good Hauer film, if you like Medieval fantasy.

        Reminds me of he time in Utrcht where I had my guide book to the highest steeple in all the Netherlands. I followed its directions "religiously" so to speak, left turn at the cafe, right at the railroad tracks, could not find the Church and Steeple with 300 steps to the top and a view of all Holland.
        Finally, I gave up, went in a salon to get my haircut.
        I tell the babe cutting my hair the story, she gets kind of quiet, and uncomfortable, and asks me heisitatingly:
        
        "Did you look up?'
        
        Me: What?
        
        "Did you look up?"
        
        No.
        
        "Outside, look up."
        
        There it was!!!! Going all the way to the clouds about half a block away..

        Deckard's eyes glowed, like the replicants, for a second there in his apartment.
