a company was producing an english-language movie. in one scene, an exhausted messenger was supposed to dash in, collapse, and gasp out a vital message in swahili. the company even found someone who knew the language. the scene worked beautifully the movie -- until it played in an african town where swahili was well known. a moment of high drama nose-dived into comedy as the panting messenger gasped out: "i don't think i am being paid enough for this part!"

a veteran actor had finally been offered a part, but it was only a single line. at one point in a civil war play, he was to come on stage and say, "hark! is that not the distant sound of artillery?" scornfully, he told his agent he would not dream of taking it, but his agent felt otherwise. "monty, baby," he said, "you havent been on the boards in a ling time and you got to keep your name out there. i admit that this is only a single line, but its a crucial one, and properly delivered, it can do a lot for you. grudgingly, the veteran conceded the point; it meant a little income at least. he hastened out to baltimore, where the play was getting its tryout, and all the way there he kept practicing the line with a variety of readings, trying to determine which was best. our actor arrived shortly before curtain time. while the play proceeded, he was put into uniform and makeup, and this was barely completed when his cue sounded. he rushed onto the stage just as the sound effects man let loose a horrible clatter that sounded like twenty-seven anvils falling in rapid succession-this signifying the distant sound of artillery. at which, the actor jumped, turned, and cried out,"what the hell was that?"

police chiefs in china have been slammed for hiring actors to rob a bank as a training exercise - without telling anyone else. only the director and the deputy director of the zhenzhou police department knew it was a drill - everyone else, including the bank, thought it was a real raid. four 'robbers' rushed into the post office bank, disarmed security and demanded all the people inside drop to the floor. they even snatched a customer's bag containing £20,000, reports guangzhou daily. critics said police officers, unaware that it was a training drill, could easily have used their guns on the fleeing robbers. they were also concerned about the psychological effect on bank cashiers and customers who had been put through a traumatic situation. the four robbers ran out of the bank in four different directions. but within two hours, all had been caught by different police divisions in the city. a police spokesman said later that police didn't have a preset plan for the drill and all timing, location, and method of robbery were decided on the spot. "the goal was to test different divisions' reaction and coordination," he said. source
