Curiosità:

Helen Hunt received her script for her role the day before filming began.

Errori:

Anacronismi: Two college students and a waitress debate whether Anne Bancroft used a "body double" for a topless scene in The Graduate. In 1968, no one outside the film industry would have ever heard of this term which did not become widely-used by the public for at least ten or fifteen years, by which time such stand-ins had became common.

Citazioni:

John Casey: When you make a move out of stress or anger, it always ends in catastrophe.

Good Snapshot of history

I recently had a pre-screening for "Bobby" at my college and I have to say this was a good film. I didn't know what to expect with Emilo Estevez directing, writing and acting. But he pulled it off. To me he wrote a very real movie. He had everyday people with everyday problems. The characters even talked like "real" people, profanity and all. The movie didn't feel like a docudrama and that I think that made it even better. All the stories were complete and made you care about the characters. Most importantly you could tell how important Bobby Kennedy was to all these characters and America as a whole. This movie will be a great movie for high schoolers to see so they can know how life was during that time.(it was like a snapshot of history) I hope this movie does well at the box office. I gave it an eight but I almost gave it a seven. I gave it an eight because the next day my friends were still quoting the movie. That is a very good sign. Esp. if college students are doing it. If you like any of the actors in the movie it is worth a shot.
