:59:04
And, again to Paxton's credit,
:59:07
he had done so much
zero gravity work on Apollo 13
:59:12
that he was able to help us
:59:14
with some physical acting techniques
:59:19
that, when we were tight,
we didn't have to go through all the rigmarole
:59:24
of having people actually on these poles
that floated
:59:27
that you could hopefully, if you were physically
adept enough,
:59:31
float around and make the audience believe that
you were in zero G in your close-ups.
:59:38
The Hood, obviously, has stolen
Thunderbird 2, it's about to take off.
:59:44
But clever Lady P
uses her apparel, appropriately.
:59:52
These sequences
between Lady P and Parker
:59:55
were enhanced by the wonderful Richard Curtis,
:59:59
who's a friend of Working Title
and came to our table read
1:00:03
which is the first reading of the script
after everyone has been cast,
1:00:07
before we start shooting.
1:00:09
And at the table read he heard
what was in the script.
1:00:13
Tim Bevan, our producer,
asked him to take a look,
1:00:16
at specifically the Parker, Lady P scenes.
1:00:21
This is the best example of it right here.
1:00:38
Another shameless use of sound.
1:00:43
Here we go. Here's the part Curtis...
1:00:49
A great treat to pepper comedy
into an action sequence,
1:00:54
in a family movie.
1:00:55
And it's those moments I think
that make audiences,
1:00:59
hopefully audiences leave the theatre saying,
