"Thinking the film wouldn't make any money, Warner Bros. offered Beatty a ridiculous deal: a $200,000 salary, plus 40 percent of the gross. Yes, 40 percent. Of the gross, not the net. The film made more than $50 million."
That was truly nuts.
I saw that movie 3 times in 1 week...not rally intentionally, but dates with three different women, all of whom wanted to see it. It was great, all 3 times.

For a couple of years when I was a grad student, I had a huge poster of a still from the movie hanging on my office door. I loved the movie.
