[02] — Click the "trivia" link in the sidebar.
[03] — Post a fun and random bit of trivia from each film.
[04] — Tag (five people) Quiconque veut le faire.

1. Rain Man (1988)
During the shooting of the casino scenes, Hoffman would go off and play games like blackjack. After production was halted to look for him, someone was assigned to watch him during takes.

2. The Thin Red Line (1998)
Before pre-production began, director Terrence Malick walked on foot across the entire southwest, stopping periodically to call producers Robert Michael Geisler and Grant Hill to talk about the meaning of the film.

3. We Own the Night (2007)
According to an interview with Mark Wahlberg, Joaquin Phoenix would get into character by hurling insults at 'Robert Duvall (I)' between takes. This upset Duvall greatly and Wahlberg had to restrain him.

4. As good as it gets (1997)
Uses a recording by Art Garfunkel of "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life," a Monty Python song from Life of Brian (1979). The original lyric, "Life's a piece of shit...” was changed to "Life's a counterfeit."

5. The Last of the Mohicans (1992)
Many long nights were spent filming the siege scenes. Due to the expansive area involved, loudspeakers were installed around the battlefield and fort so directions could be easily given to the hundreds of cast and crew. One night after many long hours, Mann was heard to shout over the speakers, "What's that orange light? Turn out that orange light!" After a pause another voice (an A.D.?) came over the speakers stating, "That's the SUN, Michael."

6. True Romance (1993)
The hat Brad Pitt wears in the kitchen sequence he found abandoned on a street in Venice, Italy. He took it, washed it, and wore it for the film.

7. Notorious (1946)
After filming had ended, Cary Grant kept the famous UNICA key. A few years later he gave the key to his great friend and co-star Ingrid Bergman, saying that the key had given him luck and hoped it would do the same for her. Decades later at a tribute to their director Alfred Hitchcock, Bergman went off-script and presented the key to him, to his surprise and delight.

8. The Sound of Music (1965)
When the film was released in South Korea, it did so much business that some theaters were showing it four and five times a day. One theater owner in Seoul tried to figure out a way to be able to show it even more often, in order to bring in more customers. So he cut out all the musical numbers.

9. Big Fish (2003)
Young Edward Bloom is seen wearing a tie featuring a graphic reminiscent of the spiral hill of The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993). Tim Burton picked it out of the tie selection the costume designer offered him.

10. Ice Age (2002)
The drawings of characters during the end credit roll were all done by the children of the animators. The same is true of the picture that Sid draws of himself on a cave wall.



Et maintenant, des listes...

Comment to this post with a subject for a top five (ships, songs, books, etc) you would like to see my answer. I will post my answers in a separate entry. Be as specific or as broad as you'd like.

Et comme [livejournal.com profile] modocanis, soit vous me proposez un sujet, soit je peux vous en donner un si vous préférez :-)

Wow, j'ai un peu de mal, parce que mine de rien je me rends compte que j'ai vraiment lu TRES peu de littérature classique... et de ce que j'en ai lu les couples ne m'ont pas forcément marqué... faut que j'y réfléchisse (mais j'en ai déjà un, qui m'est venu tout de suite en tête XD)

... je te dis ça prochainement :-)

O.O God! Ça fait un moment que je me demandais d’où venaient ces dessins, qui ont un petit côté préhistorique, sans pour autant être vraiment ça…

Alors, ton top five des méchants, tous univers confondus.^^

Eh ben voilà, maintenant tu sais.... et moi aussi XD


Ooooh ça c'est une chouette idée de top five XD ... mais après les deux premiers qui me viennent immédiatement en tête, c'est dur de se décider, vu tous les méchants que j'affectionne...

1. Master (Doctor Who)
2. Blofeld (James Bond)
3. Keyser Söze (The Usual Suspects)
4. Dracula (je n'ai pas lu le roman, mais j'adore la version Gary Oldman, bien sûr... ainsi que la version Richard Roxburgh)
5. Et le méchant dans The Third Man que je viens tout juste de voir, mais je n'en dis pas plus pour ne spoiler personne...

J'aurais pu rajouter Patrick Bateman (American Psycho) aussi, mais je ne le considère pas vraiment comme un "méchant"... de même que Greed (Full Metal Alchemist), mais pour des raisons différentes ^^;;;;;

J'aurais pu aussi citer : le numéro 1 (Le Prisonnier), le méchant dans la série Zorro de Disney, Barbossa, le Pingouin, le Joker et l'Epouvantail, John Doe de Seven, le "tueur au Wolverine" (bon, moi je l'appelle comme ça, parce que ça fait mieux que "glouton" dans la version française) de The Big Nowhere, de James Ellroy, Akabane, Norman Bates sans même avoir vu Psycho, Sephiroth, Loz de FF7AC............ et mon ordinateur >.
