F.A.Q.
Q:Why did 'Spectre' feature a Day of the Dead parade in its opening scene?
A:
Interestingly, the Day of the Dead parade shown in 'Spectre' was entirely fictional at the time of filming in 2015. Mexico City didn't have a parade for the holiday, but the film's depiction was so vivid and celebrated that it inspired the city to start an annual parade the following year, which continues to draw massive crowds.
Q:How did the 'Spectre' crew manage to film the Rome car chase scene at night?
A:
The Rome car chase in 'Spectre' was a logistical nightmare, requiring the closure of historical centers at night, which is nearly impossible. The crew managed to get special permission by engaging directly with the Mayor of Rome and cultural heritage authorities, promising extensive cultural and economic benefits. The sequence took three months of negotiations and was filmed over seven nights.
Q:What really happened when Daniel Craig injured his knee during filming?
A:
Daniel Craig's knee injury during a fight scene in 'Spectre' could have delayed the whole production. Instead, surgery was scheduled immediately, and the filming schedule was rearranged to shoot scenes not requiring Craig in the meantime. This quick thinking kept the film on schedule and avoided potential millions in delays.
