Trivia: In this film, Dennis Quaid plays a sleazy entertainment executive named Harvey. This is likely a reference to film producer and convicted sex offender Harvey Weinstein.
The Substance (2024)
Directed by: Coralie Fargeat
Starring: Dennis Quaid, Demi Moore, Margaret Qualley
Trivia: Whenever we see Sue nude (which is quite often), her breasts are actually completely fake. Director Coralie Fargeat wanted Sue's figure to be very exaggerated and almost cartoonish, likening her body to Jessica Rabbit from "Who Framed Roger Rabbit." Actress Margaret Qualley thus had to wear prosthetics to enhance her figure, including a fake set of hyper-realistic large breasts. Qualley joked that the effects teams gave her "the rack of a lifetime... just not my lifetime."
Trivia: Ray Liotta was meant to play the creepy producer Harvey, but tragically passed away shortly before production began.
Elisabeth Sparkle: You have to.
Sue: CONTROL YOURSELF!
Oliver: Hey, Sue! How have you been, I've missed you.
Elisabeth Sparkle: FUCK OFF!
Harvey: Pretty girls should always smile!
Question: Why would the New Year's Eve special at the end of the movie allow naked women to be viewed by the audience and on public television without censorship? Also, why would a mother allow her young daughter in the audience (the little girl in the blue dress) to see these naked women on stage?
