BEHIND THE STUNTS

A Burt Reynolds double bill is always an essential. Here we see him playing Gator McClusky in White Lightning in 1973 and again in Gator in 1976. 
Its another fine example of Burt working with long term friend and stuntman HAL NEEDHAM.

Hal always wanted to push the boundaries and occasionally it didn't always go according to plan....as you'll find out here.

I've been asked many question regarding this case and although it doesn't fall into stonework as such, the armourer is a vital part of the team who create the action sequences.
This happened on a film set - a rehearsal...and yet a live round was fired and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injured director Joel Souza. How did this happen?

The court found Gutierrez Reed guilty of Involuntary Manslaughter 2 days ago.

This is how I see the situation

The most expensive movie of 1997and one of the most exciting...also one of the silliest.
BRIAN and GREG SMRZ are in charge of the action and they absolutely earn every single penny of their fee. Brilliant to say the least and here I chat about the big boat chase finale. 

Enjoy

Ask someone to name a western and this movie is likely to be in the top 10.
Brilliantly clever, extremely funny and action packed.
Stunt Coordinator JAMES ARNETT created the right atmosphere with the right stuntmen.
He would double Paul Newman and MICKEY GILBERT would double Robert Redford.

Here we explore the high fall and take a look at how this was captured on film

Without question one of the greatest action films of our time. Arnie is back and this time he's fighting creatures from other galaxies. 
CRAIG BAXLEY is at the helm as stunt coordinator and 2nd Unit Director and what a team he puts together.
Apart from JOEL KRAMER and PETER KENT on doubling duty we have some big names mingling with big names from the Mexican stunt industry.

Lets take a look and see what makes it so good

A war movie is always a good place for a stuntman to shine. This movie has Harrison Ford in the thick of the action and the arms of Lesley Anne Down...some guys get all the luck eh?

The stunts are handled by stunt coordinator ALAN STUART who brings together a great team including JIM DOWDALL, VAL MUSETTI and a young man who knows a thing or two about called EDDIE KIDD.
Lets explore, through Jims eyes the experience you need to get on in the business...or any business for that matter.

Here is the link for the movie on YouTube if you haven't seen it
