American Sniper

This biographical war drama was written by Jason Hall and directed by none other than Clint Eastwood. The film follows the life of Chris Kyle, the deadliest marksman in U.S. military history, played by Bradley Cooper.

In one scene where Cooper’s character is cradling a clearly fake baby, he uses his thumb to give the lifeless doll a little bit of animation. Critics, audiences, and even Ellen DeGeneres wondered aloud as to why the producers didn’t get a real baby for the part.
