Sedgwick says this was when she starred in the 1989 film “Born on July 4” with Cruise and her husband, Kevin Bacon, filmed “A Few Good Men” with him.
She told Barrymore, “I was pregnant, I was very pregnant and we were invited to dinner. We were invited to dinner with a lot of famous people like Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, because she was in [A Few Good Men]. Rob Reiner was there, there was a stream and Nicole [Kidman] he was there. It was one of those nights that I’m often not invited to. “
They were there to screen “A Few Good Men.” Sedgwick said he couldn’t help himself and began researching the Cruise House, which of course led to problems.
“It was such a mantelpiece, and I was looking around and there was this little button under the little room. I was like, ‘What’s that little button?’ Nothing happened and then I got a little nervous. ”
Cruise was in the middle of the conversation when he came clean about what he had done.
“He says, ‘This is the panic button,'” Sedgwick said. “And that’s how the cops came, they had to stop the screening, they had to see Tom. I think there were more than five cop cars, it was something.”
And he hasn’t been there since.
“I was not invited back,” she said.
