When Stars Collide

During the silent era was a waste of money, intended to make a film with more than one star. People like Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd and Buster Keaton were considered potent enough box office alone. But with the decrease in the number of visitors during the Great depression, MGM has decided to first all-star ensemble of Hollywood at the Grand Hotel (1932) with the mammoth egos of Joan Crawford, Wallace beery, John Barrymore and Greta Garbo function. The director was Edmund Gouldingto leave, Joan Crawford and Garbo no scenes together for fear that they might outshine the other groped. Though she praised her co-star of the Swedish beauty, Crawford hated Garbo requests for top billing. Knowing that he hated late Greta Crawford and Marlene Dietrich was always late and played loud recordings Dietrich on the set.

Crawford another classic encounter with rival Bette Davis on the set of what had really happened to Baby Jane (1962). Betty, knowing that Joan was theWidow of Alfred Steele, former head of the Pepsi Corporation, had brought a distributor Coca-Cola for the cast and crew. As the late Bette Joan, a woman often ugly, but it was a total pro, would proclaim loudly, "is not the widow Steele finished?" Joan said she had dressed with lining pockets with weights, like a scene in which Davis Crawford pull character almost dead on the floor, he nearly broke his back.

Male Stars do not always handle. On the spot in Japan for the filmingTeahouse of the August Moon (1956), Glenn Ford visited the dressing room her co-star Marlon Brando. "Marlon did you eat chocolate chip cookies my wife sent me one?". "No, I'm Glenn." OK. Ford hesitated at the door. "Marlon was, all you have to do, will take charge of his hand." Ford went to his next scene with Brando crazy weather in the locker room and smashed into a Ford to shoot the remaining cookies with a hammer.

Another Ford, Harrison, had adustup with Brad Pitt during the filming of The Devil's Own (1996). At first Pitt was thrilled to work with the older actor, but his enthusiasm waned as the script attention from his pleasant young Irish killer of middle age, Ford is moving happily married policeman. Ford may be threatened by the younger star, accused Pitt tries to be an apologist for the IRA. The film was delayed for hours almost every day as Pitt, Ford and director Alan Pakula would say the script. L 'Budget exploded to over ninety million, became a box office failure and led to the Columbia Pictures head Mark Canton fired. During production, when the two stars were fighting scenes together have taken their frustrations landing real blows.

An all-star male cast, it can be difficult to distinguish. Steve McQueen was so desperate to appear in The Magnificent Seven (1960), had deliberately crashed into a car and used his slight injury temporarily from his televisionWanted Dead Or Alive series (1958-1961). He hid in Mexico, while he "recovers" to a great job. His new challenge was not so obscured by the film star Yul Brynner. The colorful, larger than life Brynner was actually five feet nine (as McQueen) and concerned about his height on screen. would for the first scene between Chris (Brynner) and Vin (McQueen), the Swiss actor Mongolian built a hill of earth, which allows him to tower over her co-star. But Steve keptblowing his lines. Before any new revenue would kick some dirt from the bottom of Hill's Yul. By the time he got the right scene Brynner was almost standing in a hole.

Sometimes arguments break out between the stars just for men and women in their first. A scene of race in The Bishop's Wife (1947) was delayed because Cary Grant and Loretta Young could not stand each other. Both insisted that their profiles left their own half most photogenic and have been pushed strongly for theThe position of the camera. After the battle lasted a few hours, the producer Sam goldywn anger fell on the set and shouted: "When I photograph only half, I pay only half" The problem with Young looks out the window and Grant coming from behind and wrapped his arms gently around her chin and was carried on the back, was in both their left eye.

Ten years later, Grant falls in love with his leading lady Sophia Loren making Pride and the Passion(1957). His co-star Frank Sinatra was extremely jealous. Trying to make friends said Loren to Sinatra in Italian and concerned about their knowledge of advertising for the upcoming interviews. As usual, the devil took over Sinatra. He recommended to use profanity in every sentence. In particular, the word "F", which was a nickname for the Americans. When Sophia's first press conference led the shaken reporter asked her where she learned to talk like that. After a couple of good bellylaughs, she was advised to make Cary Grant her new English teacher.
