I spent days and days agonising on how to cover the train crash. I recall spending an entire long weekend at our holiday house doing nothing but pace around in circles trying to make some insane montage with about twenty odd seperate shots in it work. I had grandiose plans of shooting from every conceivable angle and heroically fusing it all together to dazzle the world. In the end, I came to my senses and chopped it right down to one or two major shots: shot 99 bascially becoming most of the sequence. Shot 93 was made part of the chase, and to make it a bit more interesting I had L crash through a closing railway barrier. Actually, shot 93 is actually incorrect on this board: the POV shot it should be facing screen right to screen left, not the way its drawn.
