The scene in which Quasimodo rings the cathedral bells for Esmeralda was shot the day World War II began in Europe. The director and star were so overwhelmed, the scene took on a new meaning, with Charles Laughton ringing the bells frantically and William Dieterle forgetting to yell "cut." Finally, the actor just stopped ringing when he became too tired to continue. Later, Laughton said, "I couldn't think of Esmeralda in that scene at all. I could only think of the poor people out there, going in to fight that bloody, bloody war! To arouse the world, to stop that terrible butchery! Awake! Awake! That's what I felt when I was ringing the bells!"

CHARLES LAUGHTON (Quasimodo) and MAUREEN O' HARA (Esmerelda) in the HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE-DAME (1939) | dir. William Dieterle

Someone mentioned on one of my posts before their appreciation to the professionalism of the movie during the space scenes and I definitely have to agree. Highly trained Man v situation is actually so much more interesting then interpersonal drama, especially since you get to know and like everyone. Here’s some factoids I found and like that sort of align with that

“No panicked reactions”?! What’s this???:

Yeah he’s not hyperventilating or crying but the man’s flipping his absolute shit.

The Indiana Jones movies are about a guy who has a magic hat. Whenever he's wearing the hat, he's got +10 speed, dexterity and invulnerability. If an Indiana Jones villain was smart, they would take his hat away and he'd turn back into a college professor. #moviefacts

MOVIE FACTS: In Goncharov (1973), at around 10 minutes 4 seconds into the film, what many fans have claimed to be a DeLorean can be seen for a few frames. This is thought to be in reference to Back to The Future (1985), considering the significance of clocks in the film's narrative.

This mystery has puzzled fans and critics alike for decades, seeing as the DeLorean car was not yet on the market, and Back to The Future would not release for another 12 years. Some have even speculated on fan forums such as the Official Goncharov Wiki that director Martin Scorsese, Robert Zemeckis, and John DeLorean made a secret deal to place this impossible reference in the film to drum up excitement for Goncharov's rumored sequel, which was allegedly scheduled for release in December of 1985. However, talk of a sequel has neither been confirmed nor denied, as director Martin Scorsese has famously refused to comment on the alleged reference, claiming that fans are "looking too deep into this movie."

Did you know Bill Murray actually did eat all that food in the Groundhog Day diner scene?

Typically when there’s a scene in a movie involving food (especially in large quantities like this scene) the actor(s) will be given a “spit bucket”. This is just how it sounds; once the take is over, the actor can spit the food out into the bucket so they don’t risk getting sick from over eating.

But when filming this scene—where Bill’s character gorges himself on several breakfast foods—Bill declined the offer of a spit bucket, saying that he’d be fine without it.

All this to say, he really did swallow that whole slice of cake he shoves into his maw. Despite saying he could handle it, he actually did get pretty sick after.

Random Fact #6,383

The movies Romeo + Juliet and Moulin Rouge! are part of a movie trilogy (called the Red Curtain Trilogy).

The point of the trilogy is to tell stories through the three main types of performance storytelling in a way that constantly reminds the watcher that what they're watching isn't real.

The first movie in the trilogy is Strictly Ballroom, where most of the story is told through dance.

The second is Romeo + Juliet, where the story is primarily told through speech (the goal of breaking the suspension of disbelief is why the movie is set in modern times but the speech is the original Shakespearean text).

The third is Moulin Rouge!, whose story is mostly carried via song.

Just wanna post this because I haven't heard anyone talking about it here. The amazing talented Emerald Fennell who wrote and directed Saltburn and Promising Young Woman is ALSO Midge in the Barbie movie. I think everyone was so stunned by Midge being in the movie in general that no one really comprehended that it was Emerald. It makes sense for her to be in it. Margot Robbie was a producer on both of her movies, but I haven't seen too many people talk about it with the popularity Saltburn has gotten.
