Now this is both a little bit funny and a little bit scary...funny because the artistes involved in making the little movie were living entirely in their make-believe realm, and not at all based on reality...:cryinlaugh:

...and scary because the SF PD would probably have been entirely justified in killing the schmuck actor. :shock:

Yowza! Some communication wires got seriously crossed!!
This is why filming things on sets is better -- more control over the situation.
Location filming is great -- but requires a firm control over what is going on and esp. with the local authorities.
I wonder why the schmuck actor didn't drop the gun? Did the script call for fake police to be there? If not why would he assume the police were actors?



Ugh. "Method" actors...."oke: :cluebat: :cluebat: :soap: :headbonk: :bolt:
