This was the final on-camera appearance mentioned in the article below—one that was completed only after a series of harrowing twists and turns. Who could have imagined that, because of the Chinese Communist Party’s sabotage, simply standing on the street to do a “normal” on-camera report would require me...

John Renoir on filming the train scenes in 'The Human Beast' (1938): "'The Human Beast' (1938) was a rather difficult film to shoot, since much of it takes place on locomotives. You can't shoot on a locomotive the way you can in a studio. There was so much to install. I must say that the state railway system was marvelous, they helped us, gave us some extraordinary assistants who took part in the film, who advised us, who prevented us from making mistakes. Because here again I insisted on exterior reality, I wanted very much for it to be respected. Believe me, there isn't a detail in this film that isn't exact. They gave us a track that wasn't being used during the time we were shooting the film. On this track we put a train, composed of a locomotive, our locomotive, our character, the Lison, the one we photographed. Behind it, we had a flatcar on which we had two generators to provide the electricity. We lit the locomotive exactly as if it were a character in a studio: instruments, lights, backlighting, everything you need. And of course all that was connected with wires, with straps, all that. It was all very complicated, because we were moving at sixty miles an hour! To reach sixty miles an hour in a hurry, we had another train push us from behind, so that we picked up speed quickly. We did it with two locomotives. We also had a few normal cars in which the actors could wash up, relax when they weren't shooting, reapply their makeup, have something to eat, and so on. It all was very organized. I must say that the photography was exciting and rather dangerous at times. My nephew, the cameraman, Claude Renoir, was almost knocked off once. He was in charge of a camera that was against the side of the locomotive. We had measured everything. The camera was fixed against the locomotive, but we had miscalculated, and the camera stuck out maybe one centimeter, and when we entered a tunnel - we were filming in a tunnel - the camera was knocked off and smashed. Luckily Claude saw what was coming just before it happened, he guessed it, and he flattened himself against the train and wasn't knocked off too. Luckily he's still alive." ('Renoir on Renoir', translated by Carol Volk, 1989)

Michelangelo Antonioni on the Final sequence of 'The Passenger' (1975): "Interviewer: How long did it take to do the final scene of The Passenger? Antonioni: 11 days. But that was not because of me but because of the wind. It was very windy weather and so difficult to keep the camera steady. Interviewer: One critic has said that the final seven-minute sequence is destined to become a classic of film history. Can you explain how you conceived it? Antonioni: I had the idea for the final sequence as soon as I started shooting. I knew, naturally, that my protagonist must die, but the idea of seeing him die bored me. So I thought of a window and what was outside, the afternoon sun. For a second, just for a fraction-Hemingway crossed my mind: "De@th in the Afternoon." And the arena. We found the arena and immediately realized this was the place. But I didn't yet know how to realize such a long shot. I had heard about the Canadian camera, but I had no first-hand knowledge of its possibilities. In London, I saw some film tests. I met with the English technicians responsible for the camera and we decided to try. There were many problems to solve. The biggest was that the camera was 16mm and I needed 35mm. To modify it would have involved modifying its whole equilibrium since the camera IS mounted on a series of gyroscopes. However. I succeeded in doing it. Interviewer: Did you use a zoom lens or a very slow dolly? Antonioni: A zoom was mounted on the camera. But it was only used when the camera was about to pass through the gate. Interviewer: It's interesting how the camera moves toward the man in the center against the wall but we never get to see him, the camera never focuses on him. Antonioni: Well, he is part of the landscape, that's all. And everything is in focus-everything. But not specifically on him. I didn't want to go closer to anybody. The surprise is the use of this long shot. You see the girl out side and you see her movements and you understand very well without going closer to her what she's doing, maybe what her thoughts are. You see, I am using this very long shot like closeups, the shot actually takes the place of closeups. Interviewer: Did you cover that shot in any other way or was this your sole commitment? Antonioni: I had this idea of doing it in one take at the beginning of the shooting and I kept working on it all during the shooting." [Filmmakers Newsletter, I975]

FNC Boaster: “These events are, as you can probably imagine, quite tiring. We go from the upper bracket into three games in a row for the final days. That, on top of lots of media, lots of features, lots of just random stuff that we do. Not to mention the fact that when we go into our games, there’s a lot of adrenaline. After every game, my body aches and my head hurts, and then we have to somehow get to sleep, and then we’ve got to wake up early and stuff. So there’s loads of factors into this. It’s not just simply, you go in and you play. And I think we started slow today, especially on Corrode and Lotus. A big map was Lotus for us, and we weren’t able to, just everything wasn’t going our way. The Odin was completely annihilating us. Then when we got to Abyss, we were like, ‘This is the last chance.’ And I felt very confident that we could win this one, because I felt like I knew everything they did on the attack side. And then, what were we like 1–11 down or something? I was like, ‘Oh bloody hell, this one’s going to be a tough one, isn’t it?’ We managed to do it, and then I was like, ‘Holy guacamole, the dream is alive!’ And it felt amazing, hearing the crowd and being able to just do that, because it would’ve been so disappointing of a final to just bomb out there. But in the FNATIC way, we fight back. Ascent, we’re starting to feel the kind of momentum. And then it gets to Sunset, a map that was the one kind of perma-ban we had, but we had some stuff on it. Unfortunately, it was just the crucial map for us to get the win, and some of the rounds just didn’t go our way, and that’s how VALORANT goes, you know. It felt like the rounds that we needed to win, we lost, and then they had an ultimate the next round, and that’s how brutal it is on defense. If we had just been able to win one of those rounds, like the bonus round, holy guacamole, we would’ve been loving life. And it was the difference of like a 1v1 in the end. So yeah, I mean, we tried our best. That’s why I’m not that [sad]. I am sad, obviously, but I’m not like how I was in Toronto, because I felt like we pushed, we tried our best, and I’m very happy with the boys. It would’ve been nice to win, but there’s only one winner, so it’s just a blessing to compete instead.” #VALORANTChampions via Pedro Romero

"With 'The Color of Money' (1986), working with two big stars [Paul Newman & Tom Cruise], we tried to make a Hollywood movie. Or rather, I tried to make one of my pictures, but with a Hollywood star: Paul Newman." --- Martin Scorsese Full Excerpt: "After 'The Last Temptation' was cancelled in 1983, I had to get myself back in shape. Work out. And this was working out. First 'After Hours' (1985), on a small scale. The idea was that I should be able, if 'Last Temptation' ever came along again, to make it like 'After Hours', because that’s all the money I’m gonna get for it. Then the question was: Are you going to survive as a Hollywood filmmaker? Because even though I live in New York, I’m a “Hollywood director.” Then again, even when I try to make a Hollywood film, there’s something in me that says, “Go the other way.” With 'The Color of Money' (1986), working with two big stars, we tried to make a Hollywood movie. Or rather, I tried to make one of my pictures, but with a Hollywood star: Paul Newman. That was mainly making a film about an American icon. That’s what I zeroed in on. I’m mean, Paul’s face! You know, I’m always trying to get the camera to move fast enough into an actor’s face—a combination of zoom and fast track—without killing him! Well, in 'The Color of Money' there’s the first time Paul sees Tom Cruise and says, ’’That kid’s got a dynamite break,” and turns around and the camera comes flying into his face. Anyway, that night, we looked at the rushes and saw four takes of this and said, “That man’s gonna go places! He’s got a face!” (Martin Scorsese's interview with Harlan Jacobson, FIlm Comment, 1988)
