in 1980, he co-wrote and directed "the blues brothers", a comedy starring john belushi and dan aykroyd. it featured musical numbers by r&b and soul legends james brown, cab calloway, aretha franklin, ray charles and john lee hooker. it was, at the time, one of the most expensive films ever made, costing almost $30 million (for comparison, steven spielberg's contemporary film "1941" cost $35 million). it is speculated that spielberg and landis engaged in a rivalry, the goal of which was to make the more expensive movie. the rivalry might have been a friendly one, as spielberg makes a cameo appearance in "blues brothers" (as the unnamed desk clerk near the end) and landis had made a cameo in "1941" as a messenger.
