Talk:Blind Side (1993 film)

message: I had the opportunity to work on this set as an electrical specialist. I was also the one who repaired all the plumbing in the house. When they installed the jacuzzi outside it was not hooked to any electrical, and the house had no power to support the 220V 50 amp system. The set electricians planned to hook it to there distribution set but they had no idea how to do it,,,so I did it. Also the installers mounted the mechanicals above the water line where it couldn't get prime. That's why they were having trouble heating it on that particular night's shoot. I figured a way to make it get going and the AD had me put on the payroll til the end of the shoot. The shoot was in a block of our house, so I was watching dailies. The furniture scene was right next to our print shop so I watched that too. Magi Media 14:24, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Blind Side.jpg

message: The following is unsourced information:
*Rebecca DeMornay was chauffeured to the location daily. Ron Silver drove himself to the site. Rutger Hauer came on his motorcycle.
*The mansion had six bathrooms in the house, none of which worked. After a little repair, the location manager was able to cancel the rental of the "honeywagon," a movie locations port-a-potty, which is quite an expensive piece of equipment.
*The movie consisted of a scene by an outdoor jacuzzi which was not part of the original property. It was custom installed for the movie and sold for pennies on the dollar afterwards to a crew member. On the first night of filming in the jacuzzi's electric heating mechanism could not be started. Ms. DeMornay refused to get into the cold water, she could see her stand-in was starting to shiver. Until technical assistance could arrive to remedy the problem, the location manager had his crew run around to all the local neighbors collecting (unused) trash cans full of hot water to fill the tub. The action saved the evening's shoot.
*The movie was shot during August 1993 when daytime temperatures were ranging from high nineties into the hundreds. The filming sequences moved from daytime shoots into nighttime shoots, but even early morning temperatures were still in the eighties. The old mansion had no air conditioning, so large outdoor units were brought to the set with "worm tubes" that conducted cool air into the house between shoots only. The noisy machines had to be shut off just before rolling the film.
*After the burn sequence the house catches on fire. The entire back porch, lanai-style area was boarded up with drywall so that the flames, driven from long gas pipes with pinholes in them, could pour out from under the overhang. Drywall can provide six hours of resistance to flame.
*The day after the last day of shooting in Altadena, the cast and crew went to Mexico to film the opening sequence of the movie.
While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives (talk) 19:59, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Blind Side (1993 film) →  – Proposed main title header would be analogous to the header form of the other two similarly named films — Blindside (film) and The Blind Side (film). As an alternative option, I would also support the disambiguation of all three films via years of production — Blindside (film) → Blindside (1986 film), the existing Blind Side (1993 film) and The Blind Side (film) → The Blind Side (2009 film). The incomplete disambiguations Blindside (film), Blind Side (film) and The Blind Side (film) would then all redirect to the Blindside dab page. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 03:03, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
