not only was production difficult but
also the actors were fully aware they
were making a turd
enter the alcohol in his autobiography
Leguizamo admitted that they both hated
working on the movie and would often
drink throughout the day simply to drown
their sorrows and injure the filming you
know your job sucks when you have to
drink just to get through the day number
7 Graham Chapman and now for something
completely different it seems like
alcohol and comedy go together like
spaghetti and meatballs however there’s
a difference between enjoying the comedy
and making it sliding them all sliding
them all fighting them all Graham
Chapman was infamous in his day for his
drinking and reckless behavior and this
caused quite the stir on the set of this
Monty Python film
I’m warning this film not to get silly
again John Cleese later recalled that he
realized Chapman had a massive problem

vodka in Chapman’s suitcase at 10 a.m.
while searching for a script Chapman
would also allegedly arrive late to
rehearsals smelling Apodaca and
toothpaste number 6 Shia LaBeouf lawless

binge drink said moonshine offset in

John Hill Co even admits that Shia took
things too far
but hey his performance was pretty good
so he is that going for him
number 5 Anna Kendrick drinking buddies
this movie follows well a few drinking

real co-star Jake Johnson later said
that Kendrick is one of the biggest
lightweights he’s ever been around as

the entire cast was tipsy throughout the
