How did Leonardo DiCaprio become a hero on The Beach?Why would the Droids lode control in Star Wars?What persuaded Mad Max to become Hamlet?Who made Long John Silver's parrot dread Treasure Island?When was there a curse on The Exorcist?Where did Harrison Ford's quick-thinking profit Raiders Of The Lost Ark?From the earliest black-and-white flickers to the most recent big-screen blockbusters, the history of filmmaking is littered with remarkable but true tales of the unexpected.Behind the scenes on more then three hundred films, this entertaining survey covers over a hundred years of cinema history. It's a story of disastrous stunts, star temperaments, eccentric animals, Hollywood rivalries, unexplained deaths, casting coups and bizarre locations.Spanning the silents through the Golden Age to today's effects-packed films, Quentin Falk, film critic of the Sunday Mirror and editor of the BAFTA magazine, Academy, revels an astonishing collection of strange-but-true stories.
