Michael J. Fox\u2019s<\/a><\/strong> new memoir,<\/strong> called Future Boy: Back to the Future and My Journey Through the Space Time Continuum, has revealed how Crispin Glover<\/a> caused trouble<\/strong> on the set of Back to the Future<\/a><\/strong>. In his book, Fox does not just revisit the film\u2019s creation, but also recalls his experiences working with Glover.<\/p>\n In his memoir, the Family Ties<\/a> star has revealed an interesting story involving his Back to the Future co-star.<\/p>\n Crispin Glover plays George McFly in the 1985 film, and, as per Michael J. Fox, he did not follow the planned blocking. The latter mentioned in his book how Glover would keep walking out of the camera lane. As a result, the crew struggled to keep him in the frame.<\/p>\n \u201cNobody puts Crispin in a box. But that didn\u2019t prevent the camera crew from literally building a box around him,\u201d recalled Fox while describing a particular scene. (via US Weekly<\/a>)<\/p>\n Even though the team worked it out, the 64-year-old actor revealed that it created \u201ctension\u201d with the director Bob Zemeckis and writer Bob Gale. He wrote, \u201cAs Crispin approached the camera, he was meant to stay in a lane between the clothesline and me. But Crispin had a different plan. My guess is that he saw George as a wanderer, a free spirit who traveled in random patterns \u2014 in this case, perpendicular to the camera.\u201d<\/p>\n The Teen Wolf<\/a> star then shared how a crew member then \u201cfabricated a miniature corral made of sandbags and C-stands, trapping Crispin into adhering to the parameters of the shot.\u201d<\/p>\n Nevertheless, though Michael J. Fox said that even though Crispin Glover\u2019s actions would cause chaos on the set of Back to the Future, he admired the actor. Fox called his performance \u201cdownright hypnotic.\u201d Furthermore, he said that he loved working with Glover even when his methods made filming very unpredictable.<\/p>\n Fox mentioned, \u201cI loved working with him. His talent was unquestionable, although his methods sometimes created friction. Still, I respected how he remained true to George (as he understood and\u00a0embodied\u00a0him).\u201d<\/p>\n Interestingly, Michael J. Fox even sent a heartfelt letter to Crispin Glover while penning his memoir. \u201cYour performance is richer and deeper every time I see it. In fact, I skip over my bits to watch yours,\u201d it read. \u201cGranted, we didn\u2019t talk much during production, so I never had the chance to say that you are a brilliant actor, and I was thrilled to work with you.\u201d<\/p>\n The post Michael J.
