  1. Wow, a lot of talent went into making that turkey.

    I always try to watch 1776 on the Fourth of July. One of the first scenes is this amazing long take, of John Adams (William Daniels) coming down the stairs from a bell tower, entering Congress. No cuts, and when they had to move the camera over a bump on the floor, they covered this up by having Adams adjust his jacket.

  3. We also watch 1776 every Fourth (going on 30 years now) and the photography, for a stage play film, is amazing.

    This guy sure had an eye — not his fault that Joe Don was something he had to see.
