When Burt Reyolds played Paul in The Longest Yard, he had his reservations. He didn’t think he could play the role to its fullest potential. The comedy movie also had serious scenes that he was ambivalent about performing.

Abbey Road
If we had to choose the most famous album cover ever released, it had to be The Beatles, 1969, Abbey Road. It was the Fab Four's eleventh album and the last one they ever recorded together. The four fabulous musicians crossing the road have become an iconic symbol of the band; however, taking this shot wasn't as easy as it seems.
This photo was not done spontaneously and had to be taken a number of times before the perfect one was shot. Until this very day, the real Abbey Road in London is a famous landmark amongst all tourists and not only Beatles lovers.
