On March 22, 1976, one of the most iconic films in history commenced principal photography in the deserts of Tunisia. It was a long road to reach that day, and there was an even longer one ahead.

    Going to be pedantic here: Star Wars began filming 50 years ago today. Upon release there was no subtitle. It was added later. Much like Raiders of the Lost Ark only recently took on the “Indiana Jones and the” prefix.

      Oh thank you for that info. I saw “Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark” the other day and it weirded me out. No, that’s not the title and it felt like secret knowledge to know it was an Indiana Jones movie.
