1:37:06
So the upcoming transformation,
1:37:11
which is triggered by the fly,
1:37:19
is all done in individual pieces
1:37:22
until, finally, you cut to a real leopard
1:37:28
bursting through a sort of placenta.
1:37:33
Again, a scene like this today
1:37:38
is more interesting
historically than dramatically
1:37:41
because we do this stuff
1:37:43
so much more effectively
and seamlessly today.
1:37:52
Today you could morph her whole face
1:37:55
and you wouldn't
have to do it cut by cut.
1:38:06
Stuff like this is no fun for an actress,
1:38:11
this stuff is not pleasant to wear.
1:38:16
That's an isolated piece,
that's not actually her,
1:38:20
but it's no fun to put all this stuff on.
1:38:27
That's a leopard. Right on top of John,
1:38:31
this right here, is a mountain lion
that John is wrestling with.
1:38:40
And that's a mountain lion.
1:38:42
After a while, watching the film,
1:38:45
you can spot the difference between
the mountain lions and the real leopards.
1:38:50
The mountain lions
could be in contact with humans,
1:38:53
and could be walking around,
1:38:55
the real leopards had to be always
in a confined, secure environment.
