10 Things You Didn’t Know About the Movie Gotcha!

Look how young Anthony Edwards looks in this picture! It's from the 1985 movie Gotcha!, not long after Edwards starred in Revenge of the Nerds and long before ER. In Gotcha!, he played an American college student in Paris who hooks up with a Czechoslovakian spy. He's in love, she's being followed by Soviet spies, and it get complicated. If you recall Gotcha!, you might want to learn more about the movie.   

10. The film makers weren’t allowed to enter the border between West and East Germany.

Because of this a replica of the Berlin Wall had to be built close to the West side to get the shot they wanted.

9. Gotcha! is a real game played on college campuses.

It isn’t much different from what’s shown in the movies though it did eventually fade out slightly as the years went on. Some campuses still allow it.

There's more about Gotcha! at TVOM.
