:53:00
And naturally the acting made a difference.
:53:05
As you just saw,
FAB 1 turned magically from its days as a jet
:53:11
into a hydrofoil.
:53:13
There used to be a sequence in the film
:53:17
where The Hood and Transom
fire torpedoes from their helicopter
:53:20
and turn that hydrofoil into a wonderful pedalo.
:53:26
Unfortunately it was cut out of the picture
:53:28
but we were able to maintain just a taste of it,
:53:31
which you'll see as the credits start to roll.
:53:36
Here's Jeff Tracy attempting
to keep up the morale of his family.
:53:43
Paxton's great.
:53:44
He has some very
on-the-nose expositional dialogue.
:53:50
And he manages to do it
with real conviction and honesty.
:54:05
Here we go. We're going into this fight sequence
:54:09
that was choreographed by Paul Jennings,
:54:13
with the help of Paul Corbould,
who was the special effects...
:54:18
practical special effects team.
:54:20
Lady Penelope, Sophia Myles,
has two stunt doubles,
:54:24
in addition to the work she does herself.
:54:26
She has a martial arts stunt double
:54:29
and she has a gymnastics stunt double.
:54:33
Parker, Mullion and Transom
are also doubled as well.
:54:39
And the idea, in addition to having a fight
between the good guys and the bad guys,
:54:46
was to have a good sense of fun
:54:48
and show off these wonderful character traits.
:54:51
Lady Penelope's incredibly fluid and lithe.
:54:58
And then added to that
these little snippets of dialogue.
