10 Movie Scenes Even More Impressive When You Know The Truth

10. The Whole Cast Had To Do Some Serious Food Acting - The Philosopher's Stone

Over the course of the epic saga that was the Harry Potter movie series, fans the world over were treated to countless scenes depicting the students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry tucking into monumental feasts within the walls of The Great Hall.

However, a few days after the cast sat down for the first time to munch on everything from chicken legs to sweetcorn, a rather sobering fact came to light. As Warwick Davis, a Potter regular, recounted a few years back, the actor distinctly recalled thoroughly enjoying the many delicacies on offer during the first day of shooting a feast scene. Then, as the next day of filming commenced, the actor revealed that the food had in fact been left out overnight, meaning that eating was a strict no-no.

The kicker here is that the shooting of these scenes in particular could go on for three to four days, meaning that by the end, as Davis put it, "you could smell The Great Hall before you got in it."

Those joyous faces of happy students devouring said feasts just became a whole lot more impressive. Luckily, this approach was scrapped by the time Prisoner of Azkaban rolled around.
