He is all street from jump in this film. He wouldn't even had met her there.

I *HATED* Mr Magoo. Jim Backus WAS Mr Magoo, and when he passed, they should have let it go. But they didn't, and they cast Leslie Nielsen. Who was TERRIBLE! Seriously, the big problem was that when Nielsen did Police Squad! and Airplane!, he knew to keep himself in check - you play the show like you were doing Shakespeare: treat it as serious as possible, and let the humor of the situation and the seriousness of the character pull the comedy. That was a lesson we learned from Buster Keaton as the Great Stone Face. But somewhere along the route, Nielsen began playing his roles as if he KNEW he was in a comedy not the Stone Face at the center of the hurricane, and Nielsen lost whatever appeal he had. This is why Dracula Dead and Loving It failed, and this is why Mr Magoo failed. Mr. Magoo was NOT just a blind old bat. He was a blind old bat and a snob whose mind had closed years ago. THAT's where the comedy originally came from - it wasn't enough that he mistakes a bowling alley for his country club; he had to complain that someone had changed the interior without consulting the members! THAT was funny! But it wasn't "I'm blind" comedy - it's class comedy, pure and simple. And sometimes, that works! But soon the fact that Mr. Magoo was blind became the ONLY joke. The "comedy" was now directed at the lowest common denominator. And Mr Magoo manages to insult blind people AND sighted people! Only the comic style of Jim Backus kept us coming back for more, and Leslie Nielsen can't manage that style. It was simply not his thing.

American Werewolf was extremely low budget. Almost none of it was filmed in Paris. The park, street scenes and dungeon sequences were filmed in Luxembourg where, during that time, the government was offering tax credits to companies that made films there. Other outdoor scenes were filmed in Holland. A marketing ploy for European audiences was that at a big French name at the time, Thierry Lhermite, was in the film. He had only seconds of screen time and no dialogue. Locals with no acting experience were hired as extras.

Unpopular opinion, (and yet completely true): _Jackie Brown_ is Tarantino's only great film. And I don't think it's a coincidence that Tarantino's best film is based on the work of another, superior writer. Another unpopular opinion (and, yet again, completely true): Tarantino's writing is incredibly overrated. It's overly verbose, pretentious, and self-congratulatory. Tarantino seems more interested in showing his audiences how clever he is, how many words he can fit into a dialogue, than he is writing compelling characters and narratives. Ultimately Tarantino is a stylist (a highly skilled one, no doubt) who has very little to say about his subjects. He substitutes verbiage for insight, floridity for discernment.
