and sat down to go over their
lines with the producer and di-

You can film q scene under an

and finally everyone was salts

into II gallons of high octane

the clouds having gone away.
This time, too. he had us walk

walked in other directions.
Never have so many walked
so much for background for so

counted only by the representative

one was all right. This is the
