Outrageous Conduct: Art, Ego, and the Twilight Zone Case by Stephen Farber
About the infamous accident on the set of Twilight Zone : The Movie that killed actor Vic Morrow and two children in 1982. Really amazing story, and a no holds barred account of the accident and it's aftermath.

"I think most Scottish cuisine is based on a dare." is the truest line ever spoken in cinema history.

I fucking love Five Easy Pieces, I hate that it's only known for the diner scene.
It's sad that Jack Nicholson devolved into almost a parody of himself. Watch this movie, The Last Detail, Easy Rider, and you can see the hella range Nicholson had back in the day, just amazing performances.

Five Easy Pieces
from IMDb: "There was some disagreement between Bob Rafelson and Jack Nicholson as to how to play the climactic scene in which Bobby talks to his father. Rafelson wanted Nicholson to break down in tears, Nicholson did not want to. They decided to just let the scene play out and see what happened, and Nicholson did indeed cry. Only one take of that scene was shot."

None of the characters have names, they are literally The Driver, The Mechanic, GTO and The Girl.
I believe the GTO itself was a 1970, and the '55 was a 150 two-door sedan, not a Bel Air

You definitely have to go into it with a certain state of mind, or at least expectation of what you're watching.
The film is a meditation, and the invite to the viewer is to come along and join the meditation. Which is, in a way, a perfect time capsule of 70’s culture overall. Or, at least those early 70s years.
If nothing else, I really miss the pacing of 70s films.

Reply to comment by Orodruin666 in Rebecca De Mornay was the original choice for Tinkerbell in Steven Spielberg's HOOK. Julia Roberts was so miscast that it was part of the reason I didn't like the movie. by Lisieu_Lustre
Wow, I had never heard about this before. "Tinker Hell", indeed
