I noticed that take, and rewound to watch it no less than 3 times. Great cameraman there, great teamwork in a LARGE cast, and great continuity. I've worked in many stage plays and been in several cinema productions; my experiences have sensitized me to the brutally extreme sensitivity of long takes such as the one you mention to even the slightest error, so my admiration for the scene you mention is nothing but extreme. My personal theory is they tried to push this scene all the way to the exit boat, but that inevitable snafus prevented them from being able to accomplish this. I give them enormous credit for what they did manage to accomplish, though! C _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
