very togue in cheek? spoliers.
did anyone find this film extremely funny? it's a great comedy:
1) how did julie find the guys?
2) the shooting accident was because of the group aiming at a weather cock!
3) when she killed the guy with the wife and kids thunder and lightening happened to announce itself in time to muffle the sounds of the guy being sellotaped in the cupboard. there would've plenty of air in there anyway! the door was wood!
4) the kid saying it was miss becker! ha ha!
5) the first guy - she tipped the water into the plant! threw her scarf off the balcony and told him to get it! then he fell and the dummy was sooo obviously a dummy it was done on purpose - very likely a tribute to the wonderful dummy used in hitchcock's vertigo.
6) the train and plane journey - the use of primitive (even for 1968) blue-screen effects for the scenery - a tribute to the wonderful use of this in north-by-northwest. truffaut usually filmed on location.
7) when julie took off on the plane a tiny plane pulled up to the airport and the best-man guy got off! ha ha!
8) the funeral! that was great!
9) stabbing the guy in prison! ha ha ha!
10) bernard herrman's over the top score that emphasised very small character movement! and the use of the wedding music!
11) (should be after 2) - 'le mountain...le mountain...le mountain'!
i thought this film was great!!!
