13 curious 'body double' facts

1. In The Red Violin the actual violinist from the soundtrack provided the 'left hand' when actors had to be seen playing. Apparently the director told him off several times for 'over acting'.
2. in Abel Ferrara's Body Snatchers, the body double used for actress Meg Tilly's nude scene was her sister, Jennifer Tilly.
3. In the ad campaign for the film Pretty Woman a body double (Donna Scoggins) was used to enhance Julia Roberts' below-the-neck sex appeal. She does the same for Lolita Davidovich in the posters for the film Blaze.
