We love behind the scenes photos. They show you want (supposed) fun filmmaking is. I’ve worked on a few myself and my ex is an art director, so I have a bit of first hand knowledge. Take away the big money, exotic locations, famous actors and it is (mostly) boring work. Michael Caine famously said, when asked about his chosen profession:
“I’m not paid to act. I’m paid to wait”
But these fun shots are of some of the most iconic films and actors ever in a relaxed moments. From Chewbacca copping a feel to Hannibal Lecter eating fries and everything in between. OK, I’ll say it; Hurray for Hollywood!
