Welcome to follow the public account "movierush" (movierush) to focus on sharing movie eggs.

1. Paramount had plans to make the film a few years before the filming started, but it was not implemented until later when Tom joined. Brother Tom loved the TV series "Mission Impossible" very much when he was a child, and since becoming an actor, he has always hoped to star in such a movie. When Tom set up his own production company, he chose this film as his first film project and persuaded Paramount to increase the cost to 80 million US dollars.

2. It is said that when the movie started shooting, even the complete script was not ready. Director Brian de Palma conceived most of the action scenes before the story took shape, and the screenwriters basically completed the script based on his ideas.

3. Paramount once invited the leading actors in the original "Mission Impossible" TV series to participate in the film performance, but they were all rejected one by one because their roles were all killed in the first act .

Pete Graves is dissatisfied with the description of Jim Phelps in the film, because his role is a righteous figure in the TV series, but in the movie he becomes a double-faced agent who kills his companions. In the end, this role was played by John Water .

4. Emilio Estevez played a guest role as a technician who was killed at the beginning of the film. His name did not appear in the film's signature.

What's interesting is that Tom has also played an "unknown" role in "The Young and the Young Dragon Slaying" starring Estevez.

5. The director Gavin Rui Musi reason plays Luther is: He looks nothing like a hacker.

6. The film originally planned to include the triangle relationship between Ethan, Jim and Claire in the opening scene, but because this setting was incompatible with the whole film, the director Parma finally gave up this idea.

In fact, there was a scene of Ethan and Claire passionately kissing in the trailer, but this clip was not included in the feature film.

7. Apple invested 1.5 million in ad placement sponsorships for the film, but the results were minimal. Although the appearance rate of the Powerbook 5300c in the film is quite high, Tom also used it to find the key clues behind the scenes, but when the real hacker master Luther appeared on the scene, the equipment he needed was a fictitious unknown computer. . But to make matters worse, the Powerbook series of products were recalled by Apple a few weeks before the film was released.

8. This film is the first major Hollywood production filmed in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic. Many famous landmarks of Prague appear in the film, such as the Charles Bridge, Lichtenstein Palace and Old Town Square in the opening scene. However, the shooting process was not pleasant, because the crew believed that the local venue fees were too high.

9. When shooting the aquarium blasting scene, the crew used a total of 16 tons of water. The director and Tom were very nervous when shooting, because this shot has been rehearsed too many times.

10. The scenes of the decisive battle on the top of the train were shot at a studio in London, England. Tom and John Water completed most of the action scenes on the model train. In order to create the effect of the strong wind, the crew found a large fan that can blow a wind speed of 140 meters, and the handsome Brother Tom was blown into a distorted face...

11. When filming the train scene, Brother Tom disagreed with his character using ropes to buckle the helicopter to the high-speed train, because it was too unreasonable. But director De Palma thought that the film needed an extremely exaggerated ending, and finally persuaded Tom.

12. In the film, Brother Tom hung a steel wire and fell rapidly from a height, and finally hung the whole person in the air. I believe this scene is the most classic scene in the hearts of many fans. In fact, the process of filming this scene was not easy. Due to the "top-heavy" reason, Tom would easily lose his balance when he touched the ground, and his head would frequently hit the floor.

Later, Ah Tang thought of a way to put a lot of coins in his shoes to keep his body parallel to the ground.

13. The original composition for the film was Aaron Schweiss , the soundtrack of "Back to the Future" , but he quit midway due to poor audition results. Schweiss had already composed nearly 23 minutes of music at that time. Later he Use these music in "The Evaporation Secret Order" starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.

14. According to the agent's file in the film, Ethan is fluent in 15 languages (including the Chinese that Tomoko showed in "Mission Impossible 3"), while Jim speaks 18 languages.

15. Ethan’s archives also reveal how his disguise skills were developed: When Ethan played alone on the farm as a child, he often imitated different people.

    The design of the Mission Impossible series is relatively old-fashioned now, but the three large-scale special effects scenes designed in 1996 are very creative
