Cool uniforms?
Sandpeople! Or worse…

naked Moses butt. I don’t think I’m going to recover from this.
The only nudity in this movie is male.
Pretty odd for the '60s.
Yay! We’re finally pantsless! Viva la Revolucion!!
Hey guys, while you’re down there…
Might I remind you what a certain president did when she found Earth? :rolleyes:
Oh noes! They’re back, in greater numbers! :eek:
Heh. I was thinking the same thing.
According to IMDb, the female humans were supposed to be bare-chested, but the studio wanted the more family-friendly rating. Guess that doesn’t apply to Moses-butt.
all Heston has to do now is figure out the E plebnista
Free-dom!!!??
Ingrid Bergman turned down the role of Zira. She regretted it afterward.
I was just gonna say how incredible Kim Hunter is in this. Covered with latex and fur and she totally pulls it off.
really???
Roddy too. They had a pretty good chemistry together too. I’m not sure the movie would have held together without them.
Didn’t a famous male actor turn down Zaius? Like Orson Wells or somebody of that caliber?
So claims IMDb:
Turning down the part of Zira was one of Ingrid Bergman’s greatest regrets. Much surprised at how well the finished film turned out, she later confided to her daughter Isabella Rossellini that in hindsight the film would have been an ideal opportunity for her to “disregard her regal bearing”. She also regretted missing the opportunity of working with Charlton Heston.
Roddy McDowell really was a master of bringing that mask to life.
Human Fight!
My name is Luca. I live on the second floor.
The closest thing I can find is this:
One of the biggest stumbling blocks preventing 20th Century Fox from committing to the project was their fear over how the ape faces would appear on screen. Eventually they stumped up $5,000 for a test scene to be shot with Charlton Heston playing alongside the made-up Edward G. Robinson as Dr. Zaius and James Brolin as a character called Mr. Cornelius. The studio was very excited about the results of this test but still delayed green lighting the film for a further six months. It was only after Fantastic Voyage (1966) became a hit and showed the viability of science fiction as a genre that “Planet of the Apes” was given the go-ahead, but without Robinson, as he suffered from a weak heart and didn’t think he could endure the day-to-day rigors of performing in the ape make-up.
I wonder if they’ll fling poo.
