It was actually my dad driving a chrysler voyager.

Mmm... sorry but it stops to be bullshit with a gyrostabilised head (a bit like a steadycam, but better balanced), the frame IS leaning and there are absolutely no vibration, specially on the cobblestone parts...

... but anyway, who cares...

definitely not a motorbike IMO. not going as fast as claimed but it doesnt matter. i think its great. just grabbed the torrent

dude. the forces of a bike going around a corner is going to make a gyrostabilised head turn too. they work fine for slow things and single direction motion but notion with the acceleration of a bike

(and did they have such heads in the 70's?)

[m.g.]

Ok ok ok... was digging a bit (and punched my insider...), was shot with Lelouch's own car (a Mercedes 450SEL driven by himself) definitely with a gyrostabilised mount attached to the bumber. Sorry for the too long motorbike debate...

Btw gyrostabilised mounts work very fine for this kind of things (i've tried on speedboats, warplanes or even fast train...)

Ahem... nothing really special I'm afraid, I just work in film production...

Apparently when they re-released this film recently (a couple of years ago) it came with a new pumping Darren Emerson soundtrack, called something like 'Bozy Blue Rendevouz' as reported at the time on Underwater records, but i'm not sure what happened to this...and whether the DVD release below has the Emerson music or not?

But the details are here: http://www.soundvenue.com/news.asp?id=1942 (sadly, in Danish, i think)

and as mentioned, now you can buy this film on DVD....

and finally, shouldn't this thread be in the Treatment section....

Allow me to translate:

Originalen "C'était un Rendezvous" kan nu fås på DVD på [COLOR=#0000ff]www.spiritlevelfilm.com[/COLOR], mens versionen med Emersons musik "Bozy Blue Rendevouz" vil kunne findes på [COLOR=#800080]www.underwaterrecords.com[/COLOR] i den nærmeste fremtid.

The original "C'était un Rendezvous" is available on DVD from www.spiritlevelfilm.com while the version with Emerson's music "Bozy Blue Rendevouz" will be available from www.underwaterrecordscom shortly (that is, 2 years ago).

So apparently no Emerson on the DVD from dvdsource
