Watch Lindsay Lohan's Canyons trailer for which she was branded a needy tantrum throwing diva by director

Last year, Lindsay Lohan made what is certain to be a classic of modern cinema - The Canyons, co-starring porn star James Deen and directed by legendary Taxi Driver writer Paul Schrader.

But, he ends up admitting that she's actually pretty interesting to watch. "All the drama, all the stress, that means little. A director can shoot around misbehavior. He can’t shoot around lack of charisma."

The film's out on 9 August, and Lindsay's hoping to be out of rehab and at the premiere in Venice, at a film festival.

Her co-star James Deen previously described working with Lindsay as "like working with a child" and the screenwriter Bret Easton Ellis was once so annoyed at Lindsay failing to turn up to work, he Tweeted threats to go round to her house. She should just get really good at excuses, like the person who turns up ten minutes late to work everyday, mumbling something about buses and traffic ...
