We used the New Orleans Zoo,
:25:13
but you have to have
such total control of the environment,
:25:18

:25:23
or buy out a zoo.

It starts looking at Miss Kinski,

and then drops down to the top tier here,
:25:47
where the secretaries work,
:25:51

:26:02

Of course, it's quite wild
and thoroughly implausible
:26:13

working above animals,
:26:16
but that's the fun of movies
and the fun of building,
:26:20
you can build your own zoo where
secretaries work on top of animals.

This is an early role
for John Larroquette,
:26:40
before he became a TV star.

And Annette,
in her very all-American way,
:26:50
is an ideal counterpart to Nastassia.
