'I'll Stake My Pulitzer On It. Oh Wait...'

It always amazes us how many sizzling scoops Cindy Adams picks up by just perking up her ears at her favorite antediluvian lunch spots.

"BESIDES tuna tartare and bouillabaisse, you get all kinds of dish at Le Cirque. Like, for instance, that Phoenix Pictures and Columbia's long-discussed remake of 1949's Oscar-winner 'All the King's Men' starts shooting Dec. 1. New Orleans. It's Sean Penn, Jude Law, Meryl Streep."

Scooping the trades? Or maybe not. This Hollywood "dish" is actually at least several days, if not months old. The Post can keep Adams' name on a column for another twenty years for all we care -- in fact, it's kind of a nice connection to the past -- but someone needs to watch the store a little closer; like, someone who can Google.
