The Third Man
Orson Welles is truly a one-of-a-kind cinematic genius. Can you believe this man delivered many of his lines off the cuff? In The Third Man, we were particularly impressed when we found out this entire bit was improvised: “In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed. They produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, five hundred years of democracy and peace. And what did they produce? The cuckoo clock.”
The Devil Wears Prada
When we watched The Devil Wears Prada, we all kind of hated Meryl Streep for making the protagonist miserable. We like to think this is a compliment to the actress’s legendary acting skills! Apparently, she also came up with several lines and the list includes this: “Everybody wants to be us”.
