It was a cold day. It was a rainy day. We wore German uniforms from WW2. Some of
us were French refugees. I drove a staff car and had a German officer in the back.
The horse carried another uniformed soldier. We had machine guns. We had side arms.
The director shouted "Action!" and he meant it. Seventeen takes. Seventeen glorious
takes. (well, actually, it was only three.... lots of different angles...) And we
ate like lords all day. Film set food. Loads of it. We were all locals and we loved
it all. The making of the film can't come quick enough....
By a Local Extra. Sorry, that should
be…. `Supporting Actor`
