Let me know as many "little things" that you know of in the Under The Cherry Moon movie, such as hidden things, trivia, cameos, whatever. I just watched it for the first time and now I want THE GOSS...

Well, Susannah Melvoin was orginally suposed to play Mary Sharon

It was actually filmed in color, then transfered
to black & white.

I'd like to know where "Old Friends For Sale" appears in the movie. It's listed in the song credits.

Steve Marshall

Yeah, I heard it, just the opening though. I think it was when Christopher and Tricky break up, around there somewhere?

All I know is that it's a great movie, has a beautiful soundtrack, and it brings a smile to my face every time I watch it, despite it's sad ending, AND no matter how many times I watch it, it still makes me laugh just the same...so enjoy it...

When Christopher goes to visit Mrs Wellington that one last time, as he is walking up to her, Clare Fischer's string parts from the recording play. The credits are a little misleading since the whole 'song' does not really appear...

Also, uncredited, the instrumental tracks from both "Wonderful Day" and "Junk Music" appear during Tricky and Christopher's 'argument over Mary' and the 'race track car race scene', respectively.

u wouldn't want my piece of trivia. it's totally useless.

The line, "oh nooo! My new tie!" :LOL:

I cried when Christopher died.

I love this movie and if that makes my a dork than so be it.



Lots of luv 2 U all!

Prince acts like dork when he does that Bela Legousi eyes schtick

it didn't go to number 1 at the box office

MrBliss said:

it's looked at as a no.2 bathroom void

it was just pipped for a best picture nomination at the academy awards

It won a Raspberry Award for that year.

I literally have to turn my head during that whole section From "who's the baddest dressed in gold" (or whatever he says) to the end of the elevator crap w/ the chick...

uh...I hate that scene

Christopher got a flacon of "Coco Chanel" in his bathroom. It's a woman's eau de toilette - and he used it.

Surely there's gotta be some hidden stuff, like in Purple Rain, how the symbol can be seen spray painted on a brick wall during the When Doves Cry scene - stuff like that I'm after!

Here's a little trivia for 'ya...



***At an early stage,Prince wanted Madonna to co-star.A few years later,he also wanted her for 'GB' too.

***When this movie was being shot,I remember hearing that Mazarati would be appearing somewhere in it.I don't know if their scene was ever shot,or edited out of the movie,or ?

***According to the DMSR book,Prince met director Martin Scorsese and asked him to direct this film! He obviously declined the offer,but can you imagine how the film might have turned out with Scorsese on board?

***Before this movie came out,there was SO MUCH mis-information being reported by the media.More than one source was claiming that this film would be set in the 40s...lol...

Hopefully he would have added a touch of Goodfellas...

Christopher and Tommy(Joe Pesci) could have done that famous scene

Christopher : you're a funny guy Tommy
Tommy : what d'ya mean I'm funny?
Christopher : ya know the way ya tell the story its funny
Tommy : no I don't know, you fucking faggot what the fucks so funny about me? Am I a fucking clown hear to amuse you? you little fucking prick
Christopher runs out in tears...

Prince acts very camp throughout and advises Isaac to shove a pillow up under Mrs. Wellingtons ass. Because she likes that. Apparently.

IAM said:

we know...i miss the fun schtick, 2...but u gotta admit, that bela lugosi look would give u nightmares 4 days.

IAM said:

I have a robust sense of humor..I never said Prince wasn't funny in any of UTCM. It just wasn't in that Bela L part.

It's as embarrassing as watching him knock over that fake poll @ the JB concert I just can't look!
