:21:07
this kind of notion of
:21:12
these primal creatures
that exist in our genetic memory

:21:17
that we used to fear
:21:22
and they still live on in our dreams.
:21:28
Now, the reason
there's such a variety of leopards,

:21:36
of cats in the film, is that the leopard
is both arboreal and nocturnal.

:21:43
It lives at night in the trees.
:21:45
So it's very hard to work with
and almost impossible to train.

:21:49
So you use a mountain lion
:21:52
which is a day animal
and not an arboreal animal

:21:56
and they can be trained.
:21:58
So that's why you have
sometimes mountain lions

:22:01
and sometimes leopards.
:22:12
St Charles here normally is...
:22:17
I don't think it's ever been this empty.
:22:20
This is normally a mass of tourists.
:22:24
I loved the idea of making it
absolutely empty

:22:27
and wetting it down -
:22:30
again going back to
the European feel of the film

:22:35
and of Nastassia.
:22:41
Marilyn here is a little tribute to Nando.
:22:53
This is sort of part of
the gay iconography.
