"Film 43" is an out-and-out comedy movie. Although it is a platter-like work, every little story will make people laugh. Talking about the origin of this movie, Peter Farrelly, who specializes in shooting Vulgaria, said: "This movie was actually thought of by Bobby Ferrari’s old friend Charlie B. Whistler. He has worked with us for many years. The producer of " The Kentucky Fried Movie " at the time, he wanted to shoot a film in the style of " The Kentucky Fried Movie ". A long film was pieced together with a long series of short films. But unlike the purely integrated film, this one Each short story of the film still has a relationship of writing and inheritance in the plot. The whole film has a somewhat convoluted structure, and it is about two elm-headed guys who are about 15 years old and take their own younger brothers to find one on the road together. The long-lost thing called "Film 43". In this movie, "Film 43" is a banned film in every country in the world. When these three people heard about this thing, they started looking for it.Until they discover the truth of the matter."
Although the story of the film is somewhat related in plot, in terms of the plot of the short film, they are still independent of each other. Peter Farrelly said: "There are many directors and many different screenwriters in this film. The purpose of this is to make each short film look independent and have its own personality. Although one director can take care of all the short films. Creating is not difficult, but it always makes people feel that something is missing."
In addition to a lot of stories, another curious aspect of "Film 43" is that the film brings together a large lineup of Hollywood A-class actors.

The participation of these big-name actors Acting is almost all voluntary labor. The film was finally rated at R level. This rating is appropriate because there are many R level shots in the film. It is precisely because of this that you will see many big names disruptive Performances.

He said: "This little girl is my favorite actor who is about to become an adult. When I first noticed her, she was only 12 years old. The acting skills and temperament on her are really amazing. People were surprised and fascinated. The short passages we collaborated with were also very interesting, and the whole shooting process was also joking, without any pressure."
Among this group of A-level actors, the most notable is Elizabeth Banks. In addition to participating in this movie, she also directed a short passage. Banks said: "Being a director is actually very fun, because I can look at the performance with my own eyes and make changes in the next reshoot. Being a director is a very interesting experience, and this feeling is mixed. A certain kind of control and expressiveness. I should say that I like this feeling very much."
