Nice second unit work

Shot by Cecil Ford (any relation?). Blended perfectly with John Ford's shots, (even though the color and focus were off a bit) the editing worked better than Ford's usual second unit stuff. Particularly the scenes with the gorillas.

Nice work Cecil and John.

It looked like 16mm film blown up to match the 35mm film of the main part of the movie. It was grainier.
