In a news conference in Seoul during the release of Django Unchained, Leonardo Di. Caprio noted the famous adage, pain is temporary, film is forever. While it is nice to think that all of the heartbreak, pain, and struggle that go into making a movie simply vanish when the movie is completed, and all that history remembers is the final product, that simply isnt true. Some films are remembered eternally, and some are forgotten, but the stories about controversial behind the scenes elements have a long afterlife. They often haunt the world years after memories of the films themselves have paled in comparison. Sometimes, those controversial elements are so memorable because they would be at least questionable and possibly illegal by todays filmmaking standards. Some legal changes were for safety reasons stunt actors are now generally better protected than Buster Keaton, who broke his neck doing a stunt. However, many of the changes were for stranger and far more controversial reasons. Here are the 1. 5 Movie Scenes That Would NOT Be Legal Today. The Plot of Nosferatu. In 1. 92. 2, film producer Albin Grau hired director F. W. Murnau a brilliant director whod already adapted Dr. Nosferatu Full Movie In English' title='Nosferatu Full Movie In English' />Jekyll and Mr. Hyde for the screen to make Nosferatu. Nosferatu was to be Graus adaptation of Bram Stokers Dracula. However, Stokers widow wouldnt grant him the rights, so he did what no one should do he made the film anyway. The film is inarguably a masterpiece, but modern audiences are lucky that they can even see it now. Grau and Murnau made cosmetic changes to the film in order to try and avoid copyright issues, things like changing character names. They werent enough to stop a lawsuit, however, and the judge found in favor of Stokers widow. Grau went bankrupt and closed the production company, and the judge decided every copy of the film should be destroyed. Luckily, a single copy was in American hands, which was the only surviving print and the one from which all other versions of the film in the modern age have derived. William Friedkin Abusing His Cast In The Exorcist. In The Exorcist, the violence is on screen and in your face, and its one of the things that makes the movie experience so powerful. Directed by E. Elias Merhige. With John Malkovich, Willem Dafoe, Udo Kier, Cary Elwes. The filming of Nosferatu 1922 is hampered by the fact that its star Max. DetectiveMystery Films are usually considered a subtype of crimegangster films or film noir, or suspense or thriller films that focus on the.

The first injuries were sustained by Linda Blair and Ellen Burstyn, both of whom suffered spinal injuries. Blairs came from the harness used to fling her around, and Burstyns from being pulled to the floor too hard by a cable, both of which were approved by director William Friedkin. Though there was no hard evidence that he intentionally inflicted harm on the two actors, the same is not true for William OMalley. As a real life priest playing a priest in the film, OMalley was having trouble getting the emotion right during a last rites scene. Friedkin took him aside and slapped him hard across the face, then sent back in to do the scene. Watch This Island Earth Online Ibtimes'>Watch This Island Earth Online Ibtimes. That is the take that ended up in the final film, and its not the only time Friedkin slapped actors in his films. Walt Disney Productions Killing Lemmings For White Wilderness. Between 1. 94. 8 and 1. Walt Disney Productions created a series of nature documentaries known as True Life Adventures. Each installment explored some aspect of natural life, from Seal Island to Bear Country to The Living Desert. White Wilderness was one entry that received a great deal of attention, and not just for winning the Oscar for Best Documentary Feature. The 1. 95. 8 documentary film was eventually exposed for creating false material that it passed off as real, shooting some of the footage at a river and a sound stage in Calgary, Canada. The greater offense, however, was that a sequence showing lemmings leaping off a cliff into the water to their deaths was manufactured and that the lemmings were forced off the edge by the filmmakers themselves. Controversies dont tend to stick tot. The Walt Disney Company for very long, and in recent years, Disney has taken to making more accurate and less cruel documentaries like Oceans and The Crimson Wing. However, the incident has not been forgotten by animal lovers and rights groups. Brooke Shields Nude Scene In Pretty Baby. In 1. 97. 8, French director Louis Malle made Pretty Baby, the story of prostitution in New Orleans in the early 1. The film was controversial for its subject matter, but the performances and direction made it a critical hit, and the film won the Technical Grand Prize at the 1. Cannes Film Festival. Essentially a love story between an older photographer and an underage prostitute, the film had the makings of an American Lolita. That there was nudity in the film is no great surprise, given that it was about a brothel. What was a surprise was the nude scene that Brooke Shields appeared in, given she was only twelve years old. This led to great controversy for the film, including being banned in certain provinces of Canada and being labelled, by columnist Rona Barrett, as child pornography. The Canadian ban was eventually repealed in 1. Ironically, though the controversy raged, it had little effect on the careers of Malle and Shields. Illegal And Uncleared Stunt Driving In The French Connection. Its one of the great car chase sequences of all time Gene Hackman as Popeye Doyle pursues an elevated subway car by dangerously navigating the busy streets of New York City in his police car. Viewers can genuinely feel the danger in The. French Connection scene, and not all of it comes just from excellent filmmaking.

Though many blocks of the city were reserved for shooting the scene, director William Friedkin and stunt driver Bill Hickman went outside the designated area while they shot, putting pedestrians and other drivers in serious danger of injury during the high speed chase. Hickman was a skilled driver and was, thankfully, able to avoid major problems, but one of the accidents shown in the final film was a real and unintended one. Producers kept the crash in the film and paid the unsuspecting drivers repair bills. Rest easy, though the sequence with the woman pushing the stroller was planned and executed safely. Thankfully, Friedkin has mellowed his dangerous filmmaking tendencies in recent years. Animal Abuse During The Filming Of The Adventures Of Milo And Otis. The Adventures f Milo and Otis seems like an adorable childrens animal film, one starring a pug and a kitten who are best friends getting into misadventures. The problem is that those misadventures were often real, and very dangerous, for the animals in the movie. The film was originally a Japanese film, re edited and given voice over narration by Dudley Moore for its English language release. In the midst of the footage, kittens are bitten by snakes, hurled off cliffs, and attacked by birds. Even if the only things that happened to the animals were on screen, its cruel. However, the accusations say that several cats died during the filming. The American Humane Society signed off on the film, though the wording of their approval is strange. Were a film like this to be shot today, the level of scrutiny would be much higher and this kind of abuse would be observed and stopped immediately. Much lesser issues happened on the set of A Dogs Purpose, and the controversy negatively affected the films box office. Underage Nudity And Sex Acts In Salo, Or 1. Days Of Sodom. Though the film is considered an arthouse film made by a controversial director and its content is a symbolic indictment of the politics of its creators home country, there is no doubt that some of the acts and images portrayed in Salo, or 1. Days of Sodom are the most disturbing images put to film. That many of them are enacted by young people who quite possibly may be underage is all the more disturbing.
