Plot question?


I might be a bit naive, but I was just wondering how Charlie could drive a car? Wouldn't he be too small to reach the pedals? I don't know why, but this point really bugged me about the movie...

reply

I'm presuming that he had the car altered so he could drive? I've got a friend who's in a wheelchair and she's gotten her car altered so she can drive it?

Little surprises around every corner, but nothing dangerous!

When Jim gets in the car to steal it, you can see that he looks really high up in the seat so you can safely assume it's been altered to accomodate Charlie

...and then on some dark cold night I will steal away into your home and punch you in the face

reply

Wouldn't Jim look really low in the seat (the seat being lowered to accommodate Charlie)?

reply

how would charlie see over the dashboard then? the very limited information I know about modified cars for the handicapped leads me to believe that the seat, as well as the pedals and gears, etc are raised

OK fair enough.

I had a mate that was about 3 foot tall.

The only car he could drive unmodified at the time (1990) was a honda prelude.

I drove one once it felt like i was lying down the seat was capable of sliding extremely close to the pedals and as a sports car the seat felt like a lounge chair. and total height from ground to roof was about 3 feet

I suppose other cars may be suitable too with just elevated pedals.
