Is there any reason (film wise) that the whole shot can't be done the other way i.e. right-to-left? it might have been easier to build the set the other way around, instead of including a left-handed car which would be a surprise to the British audience - the main market for this video - if she hadn't planned for it to have to BE a left-handed car. -- Tippi Chai <*> chai@torfree.net <*> Toronto, Canada <*> B5-5266 "Initiating 'Getting the Hell out of Here' manoeuvre." - Lennier / Babylon 5
