The entry for the legendary and very long fight scene in THEY LIVE in the screenplay is the coolest thing I've ever read in a screenplay.
It extends over 5 pages amd begins on page 78 with the line "And so we begin the fight in the alley, as Nada and Frank go at each other."
Pages 79, 80, 81 are all blank, except for the line "The fight. Continued."

Michael Crichton wanted to film the POV of a robot and used scnanning/digitizing methods invented by NASA/JPL for fly-by photography of mars in 1964.
That's why Westworld is the first Hollywood movie with computer animated imagery (CGI).

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.

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.
