Cameos

I've been shifting towards a TV blog recently, so I'm turning back to film!

I've been thinking of how great cameos can be. To the attentive viewer, cameos can be those few moments when the viewer feels that he or she is in on the joke the director is going at. Here's a clip of one my favorite cameos, Francis Ford Coppola in his own movie, Apocalypse Now.




What are some of your favorite cameos? I wouldn't be surprised to see some Alfred Hitchcock mentions, because he just always pops up in his own films.

  1. The Big One in Zombieland. That's just off the top of my head, though.

  2. Ooh that's a good one. Especially since it was A) Unexpected and B) Hilarious.
