MATRIX UNLOADED
LARRY WACHOWSKI, co-creator (with his brother Andy) of The Matrix, is so secretive he has a no-publicity clause in his contract with Warner Bros. But details of his personal life are starting to leak out, and oh, my. According to documents posted on the website thesmokinggun.com, Wachowski's estranged wife has had his business assets frozen until he accounts for $16 million the brothers were paid for the Matrix movies. "Larry has been extremely dishonest with me in our personal life," she writes. Whoa. And at the L.A. premier of The Matrix: Reloaded, Wachowski showed up with an unusual hat, below, and a woman who was identified by London tabloids as somebody else's estranged wife, and a dominatrix to boot. No pun intended. Well, maybe we intended it a little bit.
