La fièvre du jeu

I worked in the casting office of Fever Pitch. To back up the one review, yes Richard Brooks did punch Rafael Campos in the stomach on the set. We were shocked that such a thing had happened and Rafael was out for a while recovering. The film seemed to have great promise and the script from what I remember was good. You never know how a film will turn out from the script. This one didn't fare so well..I was sent to the set to help Richard fir a day as his assistant was ill. He was nice to me but was an jerk to orhers.

When Rafael passed away a year later from stomach cancer, we wondered if the punch that Richard Brooks threw at him at somehow caused his death. I guess we will never know.
