Great movies always make us forget that it is actually a movie we are watching; the scenes dissolve us within them and we no longer keep in mind that the roles are being played by actors and the sights we see might actually be Hollywood sets. This amazing effect is achieved by all that goes on behind the camera, between the scenes. Check out a few snapshots of what went on behind the scenes of 23 brilliant movies.
