I'm relieved that Kevin Williamson is back in our lives, even tangentially, thanks to Scream 4 (or Scre4m, if you prefer your horror cinema Ke$hified). But while he's giving fine, diplomatic interviews in 2011, the Kevin Williamson of 1999 who confessed his insecurities to Movieline magazine might be even more entertaining.

If it's Tuesday, that means it's time for you to once again furiously search through Movieline's history in The Vault. The archives from 2002 are currently available for your perusing pleasure, and in addition to early interviews with James Franco, Beyonce and Emile Hirsch, there's a brief sit-down with Jason Isaacs.

Much like a painful cut on the roof of your mouth, this Charlie Sheen incident just won't go away.

If only Richards had heeded her own advice from this 1999 Movieline interview, though, things might have been different: "People say all the time, 'Never date an actor.' I say, 'That depends on the actor.'" Better luck next time, Denise. [The Vault]
