Synopsis

Hitler’s favorite film was King Kong. The Blues Brothers is the only film ever that had a cocaine budget. Citizen Kane was booed at the Oscars every time one of its nominations were announced. Marlon Brando didn’t read the script when he was shooting Apocalypse Now. Instead, he turned it into a hat. Sean Connery turned down the role of Gandalf in Lord of the Rings. He would’ve been paid $560 million. Although Hattie McDaniel won an Oscar for Gone with the Wind, she wasn’t allowed to go to the premier because she was black. Edward Scissorhands was supposed to be a musical. Steven Spielberg thought the theme song for Jaws was terrible. Groundhog Day takes place over 27 years. All of the Ping-Pong balls in Forrest Gump are computer-generated. In Toy Story, the carpets in Sid’s house have the same design as the carpets in The Shining. It took eight years for Christopher Nolan to write Inception. Back to the Future was banned in China because the Chinese find time-travel disrespectful to history.
