Before Mary Steenburgen and Christopher Lloyd were in love in Back to the Future 3, she married Jack Nicholson to save him from Lloyd in Goin’ South. They look the same now as they did when he was 39, and she was 24 in that 1978 movie.
As soon as I saw that the two actors, who went on to play lovers were in the same movie a decade earlier, I wondered if it was a coincidence that they worked together again in BTTF3. Therefore, I got on Twitter and asked the lovely and talented actress if that was the case. Mary Steenburgen told me, “Coincidence re BTF3, and yes, I think Jack loved working with Chris in OFOTCN. I loved working with them both so much. I owe Jack everything. He was a great mentor.”
I also asked in that Tweet if Lloyd got his job on Goin’ South because he worked with Nicholson in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.
As you can tell, my brain is filled with lots of useless information.
