Happy 45th to Raiders of the Lost Ark — my favourite film of all time. Timeless adventure, John Williams' score, Indy's swagger and those practical effects still spark pure joy. Still watching, still thrilled. #RaidersoftheLostArk #FilmAnniversary

Happy Anniversary to ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, which premiered on this day in New York in 1981.

Due to the age rating ( I was 15), I tricked my father into believing it was a Western so that he would accompany me to the cinema. That was easy because the German title was "Die Klapperschlange" (The Rattlesnake).

SAVING PRIVATE RYAN

All actors except for Matt Damon, underwent several weeks of grueling army training. Damon was spared so that all other actors would resent him and would convey that feeling in their performances.

KEY LARGO

Huston did not inform Claire Trevor about when she was to perform her song until it was shot. She was not a trained singer, had not rehearsed and was intimidated to perform for A-list actors in front of her. The result was a hesitant, nervous, uncomfortable rendition.

KEY LARGO

John Huston was a great director, but he was known to be be an abusive asshole, esp to his actresses

When Lauren Bacall had problems playing her straight leading lady role, John Huston twisted her arm to get some emotion into her face.
