Can someone with the dvd/ blu-ray do me a favor?


I lent my copy to someone and I don't think I'll see it again. Sooo....

Can one of you look at the end of the credits to see if in the special thanks they thank an archive or historical society? I am trying to track down information about a historical photograph they used when making the film. I just don't know where they got it!

Thanks, Lita

I really feel for you. To have loved and lost The Fall is tragic.

I checked the credits. I did not see any thanks to a photo archive. Can you narrow it down to the filming in a specific country? There are a lot of countries all with separate sections in the credits

I understand. Thank you for telling me. -The masked bandit

This is a photo they used for the hospital. So I think the photo is in a Los Angeles archive.

The hospital scenes were filmed at hospital in South Africa. Not sure what archive photo you refer to. Sorry

Loved the article.

Alas, there is no credit for a film archive in the credits. C'mon hardworking PA who found the photo, we know you're out there somewhere.

I was curious, and 45 seconds on google image took me to this photo archive that had a very similar image:

I know Tarsem has a cigar box full of images he would use for show and tell trying to get funding for the movie. I'd love to see all of those.

Thank you.
Just out of curiosity, what search terms did you use on Google?

We bought a camera from 1910 (I think) to shoot some images that were used in the film. Not sure about the image used during the hospital scene. Id have to watch the movie again. Which ill do, then ill post my answer on here. Its just been too long side i worked on this.

I was one of the PA's in the film, but my name is not on IMDB. Does anyone know how i can rectify that?

Thanks

What a treat to hear from someone who worked on the film!

I think to add a credit, you select the "see full cast and crew" link near the top of the page, and then EDIT at the bottom of that page. I believe IMdB editors review all changes.

All of the fans who look at this board occasionally would love to hear more about your experiences on the film. Start a thread about your most awesome memory.
