Ed Harris, who'll be seen next week playing an egomaniac TV producer in the Jim Carrey film The Truman Show, was a cynical viewer of this year's Oscars. Harris fought with Titanic director James Cameron on the grueling flop The Abyss and still carries a grudge.

"When he (Cameron) got the Oscar for direction, he actually started out kinda humble, thanking his mom and dad," Harris told us. "I was like 'Jim! I am so glad you chose this occasion to be humble'... Then it was 'I'M KING OF THE WORLD!' And I was like 'Arrgghh! Why Jim, why?' No joy, no glee, just desperate need. This town will do it to you, I guess."
