The DeLorean is one of the most famous cars in the world, thanks to its inclusion in one of the most movie trilogies ever, the ‘Back to the Future’ series. All three movies feature the vehicle heavily, as it’s the way the entire plot kicks off, and how Doc Brown created his greatest invention.
The still here is from the third movie in the series, ‘Back to the Future III’, in which Marty chases Doc Brown to the year 1885 and has to figure out a way to power the car home. It’s a miniature of the DeLorean, and the steam engine that got it up to speed the filmmakers used to keep costs down.
Revenge is Best Served Cold
This picture shows us one of the memorable scenes from Quentin Tarantino's bloody two-part movie series, 'Kill Bill'. The main character (known only as the Bride, played by Uma Thurman) is working her way through those who betrayed her, a long list of deadly assassins, leading up to the leader of the Crazy 88, O-Ren Ishi, played by Lucy Liu.
Like many of the scenes in this movie duology, this is a beautifully shot and designed scene that locks your eyes to the screen. This Japanese yamato nadeshiko versus angry yellow jumpsuit-wearing Bride shot is definitely pleasing to the eye.
Pretending to Hate Someone Must be Difficult
While the cameras were rolling, Lucy Liu and Uma Thurman played the parts of two assassins who fought to the death among the snow and blood, and the Bride emerges victorious by slicing the top off of O-Ren Ishi's skull.
But when the cameras shut off and Tarantino called cut, the two actresses didn't have to act to be the best of friends. This famous image shows the aftermath of the fight as the two stars hug, complete with prosthetic head addition for Lucy Liu which, now that we aren't seeing it shot perfectly, looks pretty silly.
Back to the Present
The Train itself is only a few feet tall, and the DeLorean model doesn't even hit twelve inches. Since there's no way to power the car in the wild west in the year 1885, Doc Brown and Marty come up with the idea to have the train push it to the requisite speed of 88 miles per hour, which activates the flux capacitor and sends Marty to when he needs to be.
The scene is the powerful climax of the film and the last of the 'Back to the Future' movies, and the filmmakers spared no expense.
She Probably Didn't Eat Any Cake on Set
While it's commonly thought Marie Antoinette uttered the famous phrase “Let them eat cake” during the famous and deadly French revolution, there's no evidence she was actually the one who said it. Regardless, she's remembered as saying this callous phrase as people starved for bread.
Kirsten Dunst played this famous member of nobility in the movie 'Marie Antoinette', and the stills have her showing off regal looks and period-accurate fashion. While Antoinette is remembered for this phrase, she was generally thought to be kind and thoughtful, even to peasants. But even acting as a queen is hard work.
