Commenting that in Hollywood, “doing business with your enemies is inevitable,” the Wall Street Journal reported today (Friday) that Viacom chief Sumner Redstone and Tom Cruise got together Thursday for a friendly luncheon at the Polo Lounge in the Beverly Hills Hotel, one of LA’s most public places for a rapprochement. Redstone, who booted Cruise off the Paramount lot two years ago and criticized Cruise’s behavior during his interviews to promote Mission: Impossible III, told the Journal following the meeting that the two had “agreed the past is the past and we wo uld put it behind us and renew our relationship.” A spokesman for Cruise declined to comment.
