Directed by: John Landis
Starring: Dan Aykroyd, John Candy, Carrie Fisher, John Belushi, Cab Calloway
Continuity mistake: In the deleted scene where Elwood goes into the manager's office to quit, right before he walks in the door he sets his briefcase down, it is slightly crooked and in the center of the floor. When he goes to leave it is sitting straight and further to the left. (00:42:45)
Trivia: The Cook County collector is played by Steven Spielberg.
Question: Did John Belushi do all the dancing, especially the turnovers in church, by himself or was it a double?
Answer: It was a double, and the "making of" documentary on the DVD shows this.
To be fair, John did do a lot of flips and dancing as Jake; just not all of them in the movie.
