Sometimes shooting in the unfastened water just does n’t make sense : You need sets , lighting , equipment and work party ; you need propinquity to the aerodrome , and your lead actress ’ base in London . You need Pinewood Studios’320,000 - gal submerged stagecoach .
Space on the stage is limited and the subjects are often closely guarded , so shots of the inside of the tank , especially during the film operation , are exceedingly rarified , and accordingly stunning — remember , this is an entire flick lot plunged underwater .
As dreamlike and extraneous as these images are , there ’s a good chance you ’ve been down here before . think of Eva Green ’s submerge scene in Casino Royale ? Kiera Knightly ’s underwear - habilitate pond - dive in Atonement ? Matt Damon ’s inundate escape at the end of the Bourne Ultimatum ? All film at Pinewood , in this army tank .
Beyond the shots with gear — is that a waterproofed Hasselblad I ’m seeing there?—the whole photo set is fairly striking , and definitely worth checking out . [ Daily Mail ]
