Robert Loggia
only appeared as Mr. Eddy because of his former desire to play Frank Booth in
Blue Velvet
. He showed up for an audition, unaware that
Dennis Hopper
had already been cast, and proceeded to wait for three hours, growing increasingly agitated. Upon seeing Lynch and learning of Hoppers casting, Loggia proceeded to give an extremely profane rant, which remained in Lynchs head for years as what would eventually become Mr. Eddys road rage scene. Loggia, years later, received a phone call from Lynch requesting his performance for this movie.
c.
The real-life wives of
The Three Stooges
do not appear in this film, though the Stooges address their on-screen "wives" with the same names as their real wives. The rumor that their real-life wives appear in the film is probably because of the on-location candid pictures of the wives--error, Gertrude "Babe" Howard and
Helen Howard
--hat appear in several books. The rumor may have also been started from incorrect information in one of those books. A picture of the Stooges and their on-screen "wives" appears in the book "The Three Stooges--The Triumphs and Tragedies of The Most Popular Comedy Team of All Time" by Jeff Forrester and Tom Forrester.

4.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Soup to Nuts (1930)?
a.
Many people think the Woodys Roundup sequence was filmed with real puppets. But really they took the same CG models and made small changes to make them look like puppets. Then they animated the puppet versions of the characters in a CG black and white set. Then they used this technique called the kinescope effect, which adds scratches, hairs, and pieces of grain to the image to make it look old.
b.
On December 12th 2009, a special "BD-Live" screening event of the film was held for owners of the movie on Blu-Ray, a first of its kind. It allowed people to watch the film on Blu-Ray, while listening live to
Daniel Radcliffe
and producer
David Barron
(sitting in for director Yates, who was ill) who were watching and administering the event. There they discussed various aspects of the entire franchise, while the film was showing, and even had some questions from viewers to address. Among the all too few trivia bits on this particular film they revealed during this screening are: The "Butterbeer" we see the students drinking in this film is actually a well known British fruit drink called J20, with fake foam added on top. However, an official "ButterBeer" is in the making for a planned Harry Potter theme park. The foam in Rons mouth in one scene is made of egg white. Dan admitted he never tries to go for "real tears" in any such scenes, by advice he got from actor
Kenneth Branagh
. Instead he relies on acting and "tricks of the trade" to get the desired effect across. The strange "fluid" in Dumbledores Pensive is entirely done with CG. That highly torturous fluid in the cave that Dumbledore drinks, this was really just some milk thinned down with water and then visually "tweaked" by the CG department. Barron commented that the films director and the composer tried "for months" to create a specific "Phoenix song" score which they felt would do its book description justice, for the scene where this bird leaves Hogwarts. Several different things were composed and tested, before they pretty much gave up trying and settled on this very basic score we now hear at the end of the film.
c.
Dooley Wilson
plays and sings the country hit "You Are My Sunshine" (by
Jimmie Davis
and
Charles Mitchell
) on the accordion.
d.
Rube Goldberg
: a non-paying customer in Kleins restaurant.
