What's left behind the scenes

  • A film adaptation of Victor Hugo's novel "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame".
  • Preparation for filming took about a year. During this time, a detailed model of Notre-Dame Cathedral was created, approximately 75 meters in height and 50 meters in width.
  • Filming took place from December 16, 1922, to June 5, 1923.
  • Approximately four thousand extras were involved in the film, for whom appropriate costumes were specially sewn.
  • Lon Chaney, who played Quasimodo, initially requested a fee of $1500 per week, which was a considerable sum at the time. Chaney subsequently raised his earnings twice more, reaching $2500 per week. As a result, Universal Pictures wanted to find a cheaper actor for the lead role, but after fruitless searches, they were unable to do so and agreed to the actor’s terms.
  • To achieve the image of Quasimodo, Chaney had to spend about an hour and a half in makeup, wear a rubber cushion as a hump weighing 36 kilograms, and put on a flesh-colored rubber suit and corset. To create the appropriate teeth, Chaney wore a special device in his mouth.
  • During the scene of Quasimodo's torture, this action was real, although the actor playing the soldier who was flogging Quasimodo tried to hit Chaney over the shoulder.
  • A film adaptation of Victor Hugo's novel "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame."
