11 Movie facts that are genuinely true even though they sound wrong

While most of us will spend our Friday nights on the sofa watching a movie, or even heading out to the cinema to catch the latest release, there's plenty we don't know about the behind-the-scenes process of filmmaking. And while the big milestones are often well-publicized by the studios, there are lots of strange bits of trivia that we probably haven't heard before.

Bill Murray almost got the role of Han Solo 5. The Oscar for Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs came with seven smaller statues 6.
