Description

This article is from the Movie Trivia, by Murray Chapman muzzle@cs.uq.oz.au with numerous contributions by others.

207 Blues Brothers, The (1980)

- The ``Blues Brothers Band'' consists of already well-respected musicians, who
have recorded and written with the likes of Eric Clapton and Otis Redding.
- Every time we see the window in Elwood's apartment a train goes past.
- When the police car flips over in the mall, the police officer says ``Hey,
they broke my watch!'' This line is repeated after every major car crash.
- ``Murph and the Magictones'' have a pink Cadillac with the name of the band
painted on the side. After they re-join the Blues Brothers, the car has
``The Blues Brothers'' crudely spray-painted on it.
- Elwood never takes off his sunglasses, and Jake never takes off his hat.
- This film holds the world record for the number of cars crashed.
- DIRTRADE(John Landis): [ipanema]: the music in the elevator.
- DIRTRADE(John Landis): [SYNW]: the message on the billboard that the
cops were hiding behind.
- DIRTRADE(John Landis): [filmmakers] Appearances by directors 'Frank Oz' (qv)
and 'Steven Spielberg' (qv).
