Bill Pullman Says Spaceballs Crew Worried Bluescreen Would Blind Them
The crew’s worry that working with a special-effects bluescreen could cause them to pass out or go blind is the story that makes Bill Pullman chuckle the most as he recalls his time on the set of Spaceballs.
Mel Brooks discovered the now-famous actor then 32 years old in a performance of Barabbas at the Los Angeles Theatre Center. At the time, Pullman was a relative unknown, with only one film credit under his belt (Ruthless People). The legendary writer-director offered Pullman the role of Lone Starr after Tom Cruise and Tom Hanks both declined the lead role in his science fiction satire.
On the occasion of the Star Wars parody’s 30th anniversary (June 24), Pullman gave an in-depth interview with The Hollywood Reporter, in which he reminisced about working with Mel Brooks and other memorable moments, such as when the late John Candy was irritated by his costume and when Pullman’s makeup artist scolded him for not acting like a star.
Sunglasses. When Pullman thinks back on Spaceballs, that is what he remembers most. He has to take a moment before he can explain why the very idea makes him laugh so hard.
Pullman recalls that “back in those days,” people believed the bluescreen was harmful to the eyes. “When Mel or the assistant directors heard this, they would shout cut and everyone would put on their shades.”
Pullman claims that some of the performers didn’t wear eye protection despite being advised that staring at the screen for long periods of time could cause permanent damage to their optic nerves or even cause them to pass out.
As he continues, “It was very difficult to build the comedy in between takes while everyone was wearing sunglasses.” According to Pullman’s recollection, when Brooks encountered a creative block, he would do something really unique to break over it.
Pullman says that getting into an argument with makeup artist Bob Mills, an “old-school professional who wore a tie and blazer every day of work,” is one of his greatest memories from working on Spaceballs.
Pullman’s beloved 1972 Plymouth Valiant frequently broke down, necessitating the assistance of crew members to get him to the set on a regular basis despite his fondness for the vehicle. Mills finally reached her limit.
“Don’t you know you need to act like a star?! he yelled at me. You drive that automobile in here like you own a farm! “He was giving me a lesson,” the actor recalls, laughing.
The late great costume designer Dornfeld offered some words of wisdom to Bill Pullman as well
He reassured me, saying, “Don’t fret, kid; I intend to turn you into a star.” He used to crumple up the back of my jeans and say, “See? This is the key to your success that will last throughout your professional life. “You have to pull that section snug around your butt,” Pullman instructs.

Pullman, who is now working on a number of projects (including the comedic picture Battle of the S*xes, a Western titled The Ballad of Lefty Brown and a new series for USA Network entitled The Sinner), claims that Brooks gave him some advice 30 years ago that has stayed with him.
“Mel had this thing where he said 10 percent of anything is good,” Pullman explains. “It was this way of saying that in art and being creative there are things you have to brush off, suggestions, ideas, whatever to get to that 10 percent that is really good. It’s that idea of looking for the exceptional, and knowing it is rare, and you have to always be aware of how hard you have to look for that 10 percent.”

My absolute fave of his, if you can ever find it, is his ‘world’s greatest private detective’ movie The Zero Effect. So good they should have made a series of them. Ben Stiller as his ‘Watson’. Honestly, it’s frigging brilliant, and no-one ever talks about it.

We attended the same university, we also acted in plays but years apart. While performing Vinegar Tom I noticed a costume piece with his name on. Upon meeting him in LA I managed to muster the courage to say “I may not have walked in your shoes but I have acted in your pants.

We bailed on the third season of The Sinner, which was just terrible. But they got it together for the fourth, which was pretty good. Is there a fifth?

I’ve watched all three seasons of The Sinner. Outstanding in a weird sort of David Lynch kind of way. Highly recommended.😉🍻
