백만불짜리 거짓말 (1991)

흥미로운 사실

Another You is a 1991 American comedy film directed by Maurice Phillips and written and produced by Ziggy Steinberg. The film stars Richard Pryor, Gene Wilder, Mercedes Ruehl, Stephen Lang, and Vanessa Williams. It follows con man Eddie Dash (Pryor) and former pathological liar George (Wilder), who become entangled in a scheme to pass the latter off as the missing heir to a brewery fortune.

Production

The film was released five years after Pryor revealed that he had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, and his physical deterioration is evident in this film. Pryor said that he "got personally and professionally fucked on that film. They fired the director and hired another ego. I was told I wasn't going to have to reshoot scenes but the new ego had me do it anyway. That's when I discovered things weren't going well for me professionally."

Peter Bogdanovich was the original director, but was replaced after five weeks of shooting in New York. On the last night of location filming, he received a phone call from his agent near midnight letting him know that he was being replaced. After reviewing footage with the replacement director, it was determined that none of the New York footage was usable, and the script was rewritten to be shot entirely in Los Angeles.

In 2016, on Gilbert Gottfried's podcast (Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal Podcast!), Bogdanovich described how he and Gene Wilder did not get along because Bogdanovich devoted most of his time and energy to Richard Pryor due to his health issues.
