TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Early in the movie Ashley is wearing an over-sized powderkegblue (UCLA) football jersey #7. Mark Harmon was the starting UCLA Quarterback - he wore #7.

Mark Harmon's character was called Jack Black which is the same name as the famous actor, comedian and movie star Jack Black.

Although many directors zealously avoid working with even the most experienced children, writer-producer-director Rick Stevenson said: "I love working with kids. They are more consistent and in many ways are more spontaneous and haven't learned to censor things. We go about our daily lives understanding almost nothing of the world in which we live. Except for children, who don't know enough not to ask important questions, few of us spend time wondering why things are the way they are or whether they can be made better."

Most of the underwater work was filmed in a "dry for wet" smoke filled stage with special lighting and filtration to make the setting look like actual water.

To sum up what 'Magic in the Water' had in store for audiences of all ages, movie star Mark Harmon had a few succinct words that served the purpose well: "When the imagination of a child and an enigma collide, expect the unexpected."

Popular Dialogues

"Joshua: I'm doing a man thing here. Staring death in the face. Stuff like that."

"Joshua: Isn't it time we did that father-son bonding thing or somethin'?"
