this scene from Heat (1995) has its own fanbase and deservedly so

In this clip Gandolfini explains the industry-standard 12-14 hour days every single day of working on-set in film&TV industry. I worked on The Sopranos. This wonderful man(and so many who taught me all I know)is gone, the working conditions killed him, and nothing has changed

We can not be alone

Pepsi paid $2 billion for the rights to market the Star Wars prequels. They went all-in on this first film. The toys ended up making more money than the tickets. All of it was built on a poster with no actors, no plot, and not even the movie's full name. On November 10, 1998, an ad agency called New Wave Creative, working with two Lucasfilm employees, Ellen Lee and Jim Ward, put this image into theaters. It just said "Star Wars Episode I" at the bottom. No subtitle. A kid walking in the desert casting Darth Vader's shadow. Star Wars hadn't released a new film since Return of the Jedi in 1983. This one image had to sell the comeback. Pepsi's deal covered everything. Pepsi cans, Frito-Lay chips, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, and KFC. They printed 8 billion cans featuring Star Wars characters. Guinness World Records listed it as the largest brand partnership deal in history. Lucasfilm's own ad budget was just $20 million. When the teaser trailer dropped a few days later, it only played in a handful of U.S. theaters. Fans bought full-price tickets to a 3-hour Brad Pitt movie called Meet Joe Black, watched the 2-minute Star Wars trailer, and walked out before the film started. Some theaters started replaying the trailer after Meet Joe Black ended so people would actually stay in their seats. That trailer got 35 million downloads online, which in 1998 meant waiting an hour on a screeching dial-up modem to watch a pixelated rectangle on your monitor. The Phantom Menace opened May 19, 1999. A workplace consulting firm, Challenger, Gray & Christmas, estimated that 2.2 million Americans skipped work that day, costing employers about $293 million in lost productivity. In one day. The movie made over $1 billion at the box office. The merchandise made roughly $2 billion, nearly double the ticket sales. Lego's Star Wars toy line blew past its own sales forecast. I looked up what happened to the people behind this poster. Ellen Lee went to Pixar. Jim Ward became president of LucasArts (Lucasfilm's video game company), ran for Congress in Arizona, and then became CEO of the Phoenix Symphony. New Wave Creative went on to design the posters for Borat and Shaun of the Dead. And Drew Struzan, who painted the theatrical Star Wars posters (the colorful painted ones you probably picture when you think "Star Wars poster," not this minimalist teaser), died last October at 78 from Alzheimer's. The Star Wars franchise has generated an estimated $46.7 billion in total revenue. Pepsi bet $2 billion on a franchise that announced its comeback with nothing but a boy and a shadow on a wall.
