"Tom Cruise is a maniac. I can't understand the way he conducts his life," the actress said. "When you talk about a great actor, you're not talking about Tom Cruise. His whole behaviour is so shocking." Bacall, 84, was speaking to Elle magazine for a profile on fellow actress Nicole Kidman, who was married to Cruise for nearly 10 years. Since their break-up, Cruise has become known for his eccentric behaviour, including his infamous sofa-jumping on the Oprah Winfrey Show when he declared his love for Katie Holmes. Bacall and Kidman worked together in 2003 on the Lars von Trier film, Dogville. Bacall noted that at the time "Tom had taken off for Penelope Cruz or some goddamn thing - one of his more ridiculous moves."
