“Gotcha, suckers!”
— Bowfinger (1999), written by Steve Martin
The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Movie Within a Movie.
Trivia: Based on a real incident in 1927. A Russian filmmaker covertly shot footage of the vacationing Mary Pickford, and fashioned an entire film around the footage, creating the illusion that Pickford was actually starring in this Russian film.
Dialogue On Dialogue: The haphazard shooting of the movie within the movie all leads up to the pivotal moment where Kit Ramsey (Eddie Murphy) has to yell, “Gotcha, suckers!”
