i continue with movie & tv trivia that might or might not be true*.

this time it the indiana jones trilogy. it's true, there are no more then 3 movies.

For raiders;
-During filming in Tunisia, nearly everyone in the cast and crew got sick except director Steven Spielberg. It is thought that he avoided illness by eating only the food he'd brought with him: a lot of cans of Spaghetti-O's.
-Steven Spielberg and Melissa Mathison wrote a script during shooting breaks on the location of this film. Mathison was there to visit her husband, Harrison Ford, and Spielberg dictated to her a story idea he had. That script was eventually called E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982).
for temple of doom;
-This film is banned in India and never shown on TV channels in India.
-Kate Capshaw had to be taught how to scream.
for the last crusade;
-The four horses used in the final scenes outside of the temple were loaned to the movie personally by King Hussein of Jordan.
-Alison Doody was only 21 during filming despite her character being around age 29 in the script. Conversely, Harrison Ford was more than twice her age, turning 46 during production.
(blogger's note; this means she was 16-17 in her bit part in a view to a kill.)

*because it comes from imdb & people can post whatever in the trivia section.

frivolous february, movies
