The directors of Crazy, Stupid, Love admit they were worried they were having too much fun on set—especially during a five-day backyard shoot where improv and laughter ruled. Kevin Bacon reassured them that joy doesn’t automatically ruin a movie, and their infectious energy clearly paid off. Filming in L.A. helped attract top talent like Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling, and Julianne Moore, with Gosling even citing Carell as a key reason for joining. The film also launched a lasting creative partnership between the directors and screenwriter Dan Fogelman, who they now joke is the real love story behind the movie. Now streaming and on Blu-ray, it’s proof that when the crew clicks, magic happens.
