Ford was not feeling well in Raiders and I believe it was reported he had food poisoning in that scene and was tired of doing multiple takes and was not up in general to the scene, so he did that instead. Spielberg had originally planned out a pretty elaborate sword fight.
Here’s a quick correction. When it came to Indiana Jones not wanting to be in a sword fight. Most of the casting crew, including himself are running a fever and had terrible food poisoning. He was so weak he couldn’t really lift and actually have a sword, so they improvise with the gun.
You missed the very best one. In Young Frankenstein, Marty Feldman moved his hump from one side to the other every day when shooting. In the scene when Gene Wilder asked him “Wasn’t that hump on the other side?” And Marty Feldman replied “What hump?” That scene was entirely made up.
1:44 they got R. Lee Ermey in to train someone else on how to act as a drill sergeant, when they saw how natural Ermey he was they cast him in the role, that's perfect casting in the end.
I can never get over the fact that Hugh is british but he nailed American Accent to perfection that at first it made me believe that he was an American.
@@Germatti13489 It even caught Carey Grant off guard, his eyes began to roll🙄? , he was hoping the director say cut. I think Audrey and the director plotted this prank. Because the camera was focused on his face , for the rules of cut away shots you focus the moment he speaks. Audrey Hepburn was a trained stylist and beautician besides being accomplished ballerina, she used to practice shaving a balloon with shaving cream using razor.
I still remember Mark Williams when he played Horace in the live version of 101 Dalmatians. His reaction to the heater in that crappy old truck, bursting into flames, was one of the funniest reactions I've ever seen in a movie.
5:48 The reason why they didn't the sword fight was because Harrison Ford suffered under intense stomach issues due to the Tunisian kitchen. No chance for him to stand longer scenes.
Belushi's "I'm a zit" must have been popular when I was in high school from '66 to '70. At our senior skit at an all boys' parochial school, we drew a huge face on butcher paper of a kid with acne. It was at least 10 feet high and there was a hole in the kid's cheek with one of my classmate's head in the hole. Two other classmates came on stage, singing the latest Clearasil ( pimple cream ) jingle and at the end, pushed on the kid in the hole's cheeks and he spit out a mouthful of cotton balls as he was supposed to be a zit that the singers just popped.
@@joecold1243 I wasn't saying that. I think I didn't say that correctly. I meant that the same joke about zits might have been popular where Belushi went to school and that's where he got the idea from to use in "Animal House". Sorry about that.
The backstory of R.O.T.L.A. was Harrison Ford was very sick and couldn't have handled the sword fight, not to mention all the retakes. So someone (him?? George Lucas??) said Just Shoot Him.
They have to, else it's just copying clips, and the copyright protection would apply. By yapping over it, they are creating satire, reviewing, or analysing, which is allowed.
I knew Belushi’s father, he’d a bed-and-breakfast in Julian Ca. I was doing a lot of mountain-biking there and would stay with Belushi Sr. He told me that his son John was terrified of getting old and consciously choose to live fast and hard and die young...
