A joke- I told a lady extra at the filming of National Treasure,during the Smithsonian Museum explanation scene.
Data Hard (Soothing Mock announcer tone): Nicolas Cage...is a National Treasure. Rated PG-13.
The Oscar winning actor (Leaving Las Vegas) walks by (without me knowing it) and hears me.
A equally, mock confused Ben Gates remarks-
Nicolas Cage: (with his famous shouting routine) PG-13!? I'M RATED R,BABY!!
Cage cracks up the whole set and smiles politely at us, with a bit a thumbs up.
