i did that once from the half way line, couldnt do it again but obviusly if that makes sigourney the shit then what i did made me the Massive jew shit
Well, I must say this is one of my favourite videos ever...I've never seen her soo spontaneous while being interviewed...She's normally a little bit formal in the way she speaks and here she looks like she's talking to a friend.She even looks younger...I remember watching the basketball scene and thinking:"what a trick" and actually she really did it...! What a great video!!! What a great actress!!! Sigourney is Legend....
She was *originally* supposed to do take after take until they got the shot, so she practiced with a pro player for a week. Then the day of the shoot, she was told they were short on time so she should just make one fake shot and they'd add the ball in later with effects. She was sort of pissed off at this point, having trained hard at the shot, and her trainer was signaling for her to just go for it, so she did—first take, swish.
@gabedamien according to wikipedia, souce audio commentary, it was sixth take "Jeunet was concerned about the time being spent on the shot and wanted to either use a machine to throw the ball or to insert it later using computer-generated imagery (CGI). Weaver, however, was determined to make the shot authentic, and got the ball in perfectly on the sixth take"
She was supposed to just throw it back there and then they do special effects to make it look she made. But inside she did it and everyone was like wtf?
@Radz117 She probably was just supposed to throw the basketball over her shoulder and the special effects guys would put it through the hoop later. However, it looks like they didn't need to. =P
it was Ron Perlman who thought he ruined the shot when he smiled, but they could still use it. Weaver wrote about it in Premiere Magazine at the time.
ha! fantastic! i believe that's what she is like in everything she does - just unbelievably elegant and brilliant. a true woman, true professional - strength and style.
little girls, here's your role model!
little boys, step aside, please, and give it up for the lady!
yeah Weaver!

Does anyone know if all Sigourneys are Susans? Can you be a Susan w/o being a Sigourney? I guess that would be kind of like prime numbers.

Throw it ad miss, and then they'd use trick photography to put it in the hope during editing.
