Behind the Scenes Photos

[Mr Vim]

One of my favorite movie reporting websites, Aintitcoolnews, has a current running article entitled Quint's Behind the Scenes Pic of the day. The article is extensive and I've been keeping track of the older movies he shares on the page and I thought perhaps some of you fine folks don't get over to Aintitcool, and would perhaps like to see them here: This is just a smattering of my more favorite, classic behind the scenes pictures but they range from modern, to the 80's cinema, and even to television.

Here we go:

The Time Machine.

Wolfman Vs Frankenstein.

King Kong.

and my absolute favorite: Revenge of the Creature.

I say that is my favorite, well, because the Creature scared the bejesus out of me when I was a kid, so it's nice to see the man in the suit having fun.

There are tons more photos and more to come from Quint, but if anyone has photos they've stored from collections or what not, post them here, or head over to aintitcool.com and contact Quint, he'd love to hear from people.

Thoughts?

Very cool! It's nice to know that even creatures like a little kanoodling every now and again!

 

[Mr Vim]

He just needs a hug... and a little something else.

Anyway, here was today's picture which is a great classic:

War of the Worlds

One of my favorites is James Mason casually studing the script between takes.

Four years after FRANKENSTEIN, Boris Karloff is on the set of THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN (1935) still trying to relax between scenes in the photo below. Notice the cigarette in his hand...

On the set of Casino Royale in 1967, when David Niven was playing 007. One day, Sammy Davis Jnr arrived and the pair started clowning around. Niven was perfectly happy walking around in his underwear - he was proud of his legs

Rolling Stone Mick Jagger in his dressing room at Ready, Steady, Go in 1964.

Between takes Brigitte Bardot sleeping. As if on cue, the dog jumped onto the bed and stuck his tongue out.

My favorite italian director that walked this earth! :eusa_clap the totally amazing Federico Fellini behind the scenes on several of his movies... early sixties magic!


Sophia Loren, Marcello Mastroianni and Fellini

Yes, Fellini loved Marcello, he was his favorite actor!

He loved Claudia Cardinale too!

With his barber on the set. My God how amazing is this man! He will always be remembered !!!!! :eusa_clap

Hadley, I do believe that is the first time someone has said that about any of my threads... my gratitude to you.

and, Mr Connery showing off for Ms. Andress. Can you blame him?
