This film has not been edited or manipulated in any way.

I give up, Casablanca is my favourite film and I never saw em.

Captain Renault is a man after my own heart too, the dirty rotten scoundrel.

There's a scene in The Invisible Man (the one made in the 90s) where they're locked up in an industrial freezer. They use a magnet to pull the lever from the inside. The problem is, those freezers are always made of stainless steel, so the magnet could not have worked.

Full Metal Jacket... In the script the boot camp training is at Parris Island, SC, but since the film was shot in Cambridge, England the outdoor scenes have all the road signs set up for the left hand driving of the UK. They were never switched to the right side to authenticate the Parris Island location.

In "The Jolson Story" there is a scene in which Larry Parks (in black face) does a number,including dance steps,on a catwalk.


In fact, it's Jolson,playing Parks,playing him.

In the movie "The Quiet Man", Maureen O'Hara breaks her wrist slapping John Wayne in the scene where he catches her cleaning his house and kisses her. She finished the movie before getting it set in a cast, though in some scenes she hides the injured wrist - sometimes splinted if it pained her too much.
