Jennifer Love Hewitt revealed an amusing anecdote about her iconic scream scene in 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' claiming it was conceived by a child contest winner. However, the director Jim Gillespie refuted this narrative, stating the moment was scripted by Kevin Williamson before filming. Despite its origins, the scene remains a memorable hallmark of late '90s horror, showcasing the genre's tendency to blend serious tones with ludicrous moments, and has earned a notable place in pop culture history.
That scene was actually directed by a kid who won a contest to come on and create a moment for the movie, and it became the biggest part of the movie.
This was a great idea - yeah, let's have this guy come in. Then we were doing it and it was amazing.
The scene kind of was a great idea. Not because it's high art - it's ridiculous (no complaints here) - but because it's such a memorable relic of the late-'90s and early-2000s.
Gillespie and cinematographer Denis Crossan both politely refuted Hewitt's anecdote. There was no child labor on their set.
