Fight Club (1999) was filmed largely in chronological order. Edward Norton adopted a near-starvation diet and avoided the sun, while Brad Pitt trained and used tanning salons, so Tyler Durden grows stronger as the narrator withers.

With DISCLOSURE DAY out this Friday, let’s look back at Steven Spielberg’s overlooked contributions to REVENGE OF THE SITH you may not know about….

Spielberg served as a guest director and contributed to the film's pre-visualization stage. He visually storyboard several key sequences, including the Order 66 montage, the Yoda vs Palpatine duel, and the Mustafar duel.

Spielberg suggested obscuring the on-screen Jedi deaths to make them more tragic. Specifically, he came up with the idea of having the camera move up behind a big plant so Aayla Secura’s actual death is hidden from the audience’s view.

Spielberg also reportedly conceptualized the "I have the high ground” sequence during Obi-Wan and Anakin’s duel.

Arguably the greatest director of all time had a huge impact on one of the greatest Star Wars movies of all time.

Steven Spielberg says watching movies in a theater builds community as he explains why the movie theater experience is better than watching films at home.

Quand Tarantino a engueulé Brad Pitt sur le tournage de Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood

[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

When the planes struck the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001, he found himself alone in his Mulholland Drive home in Los Angeles, glued to the television. He remained there for hours, watching the world change forever. The man on the couch was Jack Nicholson, Hollywood's ultimate rebel, known for his razor-sharp smile and the cool sunglasses that always dominated the room. But on this tragic day, the most audacious man in cinema was completely silenced.

By the end of that first day, he had already cancelled a long-planned charity golf tournament and paused negotiations for a new film with Warner Bros. He also called his assistant to withdraw from an upcoming public appearance. Those close to him noted that his reaction was immediate, solemn, and deeply personal.

Friends recall he ate very little in those days. One recounted entering his living room the evening after the attacks to find him still in the same spot, eyes fixed on the screen. He hadn't changed, and the ashtray next to him was overflowing. He looked at his friend and said, "You can't pretend it's business as usual, not now."

Nicholson, typically charismatic and open in interviews, refused to speak publicly about 9/11. There were no television statements, no press releases, and no social commentary. Yet, his actions, far from the spotlight, told a different story. Within 72 hours of the attack, he dispatched anonymous donations to various New York relief groups. From his lawyer's office, a discreet call was made to a Manhattan firehouse, inquiring about their most pressing needs. He then arranged for the shipment of protective gear, boots, and medical kits to that district, never revealing his name.

A former NYPD detective, who learned of the donation through internal channels, shared that it came from a private source on the West Coast. The only clue was a handwritten note that read, "Thank you for being brave when the world went dark." No name was signed, but someone in the department recognized the handwriting from an autographed photo hanging in a precinct office. It was Jack.

Nicholson's silence was not detachment. It was a vow and a period of mourning. He cancelled plans to attend a high-profile celebrity gala scheduled for that week, stating, "This is not a week for business. This is a week for grief." That phrase, reportedly shared by a friend with Vanity Fair, never appeared in the official press. It was passed on in whispers, like everything else he did in those days.

He completely withdrew from the scene for several weeks. Producers who tried to contact him were told he wasn't taking calls. The gate to his villa remained closed, and even his usual poker buddies were put on hold. A longtime friend noted that he took it hard because Jack is not the type to cry watching movies. But that week, he would get a lump in his throat every time those images replayed.

Few knew that Nicholson had a very emotional connection to New York. Despite being born and raised in New Jersey, the city had always been a symbol of strength and resilience for him. In interviews from years prior, he had often described it as a place that always gets back up. That resilience, tested beyond imagination, struck him more profoundly than one might expect.

He began asking for updates from friends he had in the city and made personal calls to check on crew members with whom he had worked during the filming of Prizzi's Honor and Ironweed. A former set assistant of his recounted receiving a voicemail from him that said, "I was thinking about you and the city. Stay safe." He didn't have to do it, but he did anyway.

Perhaps the most significant moment came a few weeks later. At a small, private fundraiser for victims' families in Brentwood, Nicholson entered through a back door, signed a check, and left without uttering a word. The event organizer recounted that he wanted no recognition and no photos. He simply said, "This is between me and my conscience."

EXCLUSIVE: Jenna Ortega is set to play the lead role in the “Lily May B,” the anticipated next film by visionary French auteur Leos Carax ("Holy Motors," "Annette").

The movie is set to begin shooting in spring 2027. The synopsis reads: "Once upon a time, there was a little girl, a young woman and a young boy, They each held a secret too heavy to bear. They met in an end-of-the-world world, and together rode a big motorcycle through empty cities, deserted freeways, immemorial forests. On their journey, they encountered many dangers, but kept going. In search of who they were; in search of a place to B, maybe?"

I used to watch a lot of horror movies to the point that I have become so desensitized. But seeing Nikki walk backwards, this was the first time in a long time that I have felt uncomfortable.
