    This movie was supposed to star Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor. But just like the sheriff role Richard was supposed to play in "Blazing Saddles", he was cut out of the part that was written for him, due to his addiction behaviors causing him to be deemed too risky for the studio to hire.
    So that's two planned Richard and Gene movie pairings that we all missed out on. Obviously, "Trading Places" was a great movie even without Richard and Gene. But it also would have been great WITH Richard and Gene staring. And in all likelihood (in my opinion), probably even better.

    I liked your statement about how they 'could do that' back then, in reference to the cell phone. Yes, cell phones were conceptualized back in the 40's by AT&T, and in the 70's, was developed into a workable system by Motorola (the first call was to some guy at AT&T to let them know they were receiving the all via a cell phone....lol), that was around 1974 or 1975 I think, by the time this movie came out in '83, cell phone towers were built out enough that in the more populous areas, one could get cell phone service... analog, not digital, no digital anything back then, and it was about 50 cents per minute if I recall. (about $1 per minute in today's dollars. By the late 80s it had dropped to $0.35 cents a minute, and by the 90s, monthly (affordable) service where you received 'x' number of minutes per month, followed by 'unlimited' like we have today probably happened around 2000.

    To you young'ns....Jamie Lee Curtis's 'special guests' is known as one of the most paused VHS moments in history. Mind you back in those days, you watched that on VCRs. No DVD's yet....so that pause button came in quite handy.
    A cameo that predates you guys is the famous Bo Diddley as the Pawn Shop Owner. Also the balding cop is Frank Oz that says 'Opera' voiced many of Jim Henson's Muppets and Star Wars characters
    The 'N-word' was not very acceptable even in those times, and Don Ameche wasn't comfortable at all using it. He also didn't care to curse either so he only allowed one take for the 'F* him'
    Black Face was not a big deal. At least I don't remember it ever being an issue by any race. Of course Dan Aykroyd regrets it now that times have changed. However, back then it was just comedy.

    • @thorguff
      @thorguff 4 місяці тому +1

      Even when the movie was new, most of us had to settle with pay cable a year after release and before getting those VCRs.
      The "blackface" was not perceived as that unless someone was actually doing it in the classic derogatory showbiz manner. People had more of an understanding of context (and they do now; they just know they can make a fuss and get attention and see timid people cower to it.) I'm sure there are some pseudo-intellectuals writing papers or editorials at the time who made some kind of rant about it.

Second, it's really like that with stockbrokers--Experts say only 10% will really work to make you any $$..The rest don't care. Winthorpe learned the best one--The ally/freind he found in Valentine was something he never got from his snooty-blue-blood pals.and he got a more real love with Ophelia while..society gal was just a gold digging snobbette.

    34:26 Winthorpe must really have touched Ophelia’s heart at this point. She is acting dang near like his wife. Ophelia is a real ride or die chick and much more loyal than Penelope.
    Of course given her line of work and the time of year, Ophelia was probably feeling lonely as well. So she and Winthorpe saved one another.

    • @embran8486

      Actually for the snobs she dwelled among Penelope was pretty loyal. She went herself to jail to bail Winthorpe out but when he got kissed on the steps of the building, by a hooker no less, made her too scorned. She felt betrayed by the man she just rescued. Yes her reaction in the club about the drugs was petty but all in all...Ophelia has a warm and caring heart even in her tough upbringing, but who knows how she became if she was raised rich in that elitist little world?

    2. Beeks/Paul Gleason also played Richard Vernon in "The Breakfast Club" and the idiot assistant police captain in "Die Hard". 😇
    3. Landis didn't want Jamie Lee Curtis because she had always been a "scream queen" and he didn't know if she had the chops for comedy.
    4. When everyone pauses in the restaurant it's a play on the old "EF Hutton" commercial. "When EF Hutton speaks everybody listens".
    5. One of the most VHS pauses in history. Jamie Lee Curtis.😍🥰😋
    6. GOOF: Where did Louis get the gun AND all those drugs for only $50?🤑Even in 1983.
    7. Don Ameche's strong religious convictions made him uncomfortable with swearing. This proved to be a problem for the scene at the end of the movie, where he had to shout out "Fuck him!" to a group of Wall Street executives. When he did act out the scene, it had to be done in one take, because Ameche refused to do a second one. He also had an issue with the N word.
    8. There's an Easter egg in "Coming to America" with the Duke brothers. Eddie Murphy at his best.
