DownGoesFrazier Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 This thread has been misused, but since someone started it, let's use it correctly: What special PERSONAL significance did the movie BUTCH CASSIDY have for Paul Newman? Link to post Share on other sites
GIPPER Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 "Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid" is the film Paul named for his "*HOLE IN THE* *WALL GANG*" charity from. Link to post Share on other sites
DownGoesFrazier Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I'm not talking about the name of the film. I'm talking about something that happened which was related to the production of the film. Link to post Share on other sites

DownGoesFrazier Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Hint: Think of his long marriage to Joanne Woodward. Link to post Share on other sites
mudskipper Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 .It was during the making of Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid in 1968 that Paul began an affair with Nancy Bacon, a divorced Hollywood journalist whom 20th Century Fox had sent to write a piece about him for a magazine.

DownGoesFrazier Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Correct, ms. I believe that this was Newman's only significant "straying". Yours. Link to post Share on other sites
rosehips2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 What does "significant" mean? LoL Do you mean they had a relationship that was more meaningful than a roll in the hay?Are you saying that if he fooled around let's say once with others that wasn't significant? I'm sure Joanne would disagree with that. Link to post Share on other sites
DownGoesFrazier Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 It may have been his only straying, significant or otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites
rosehips2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Much better. Thanks for clearing that up. Link to post Share on other sites

mudskipper Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 This actor was nominated twice for an Academy Award for playing the same historical character in two different, totally independent movies....Actor, character he played, and the two historical movies ? Link to post Share on other sites
mudskipper Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Correct...I guess that wasn't as hard as I thought....Your thread, VI. Link to post Share on other sites
flashback42 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 For the Crazy Credits column. What movie has this comment in the closing credits? No animals were harmed in the making of this film, but the kids were treated like crap. ??? Link to post Share on other sites
flashback42 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 (374) Late 1990s Inde film. Personal project for the two writers, one the star, the other the director. Link to post Share on other sites
flashback42 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Core plot point: Two friends, young adults now, go looking for another friend who hasn't been seen for some time. They are following up on a rumor that the missing one is now homeless. Link to post Share on other sites
flashback42 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 The two main writers of this piece drew from personal experiences in their own backgrounds for incidents in the story. One such story: In childhood, one of them had spent summers with his sister living with their grandmother, near an amusement park. For years, they had played "Skeeball" at the park, never cashing in their winner tickets, and planning to finally collect a fabulous amount of prizes. Just days before their planned triumph, the Skeeball concession burned down, and they never collected. That story in incorporated into the movie. The Writer / Star is currently starring in a long-running comedy series, that has made news, other than its entertainment function. Link to post Share on other sites
flashback42 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 The missing friend is found with another homeless person -- a woman -- going through the trash under the boardwalk at an amusement park. It is off-season, and some concessions are open, but there are few customers around. Link to post Share on other sites
flashback42 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 ROLE CALL Among the participating performers: "Alan Harper" "Johnny Ola" Link to post Share on other sites
flashback42 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 The friend who dropped out and became homeless -- he blamed himself for the accidental death of his younger sister. This added to some emotional problems that were already there. Link to post Share on other sites
flashback42 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Yeah, Sixes; apologies. Been on the sick list. The kind of eye doctor appt where drops in your eyes make everything look like cotten candy. Curbed my online time and sabotaged my TV time. The story of looking up the lost friend allows for some reminiscence. They recall incidents from when they were much younger -- from pre-school up to after HS graduation. These memory flashbacks make use of child actors of different ages. These seem to be the ones referred to in the Crazy Credits passage. As for the "Role Call" clue, does nobody know who is still playing the role of 'Alan Harper' ? Link to post Share on other sites
flashback42 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Correct. Mr. Cryer played a lead role, and he was one of the writers. The DVD copy has a "commentary" feature with Cryer and the director adding narration. Good story, and worth a viewer's time. Kid Dabb's thread. Link to post Share on other sites
Kid Dabb Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Taking advantage of a clause in his contract saying he did not have to work on remakes, and believing the film wasn't 'an important film' was the official reason given by this actor for not taking the lead role in one of the most famous remakes of all time. According to the author of a book about the films of this (now deceased) famous screenwriter/director in an ICONS Radio interview (10-07-07) the real reason this actor bowed out was because a successful screenwriter was going to direct his first movie. This actor didn't want to trust his part to this neophyte director. Please name the actor (movie and director optional) Link to post Share on other sites
