Unholy Alliance

to the FBI for a murder. Amid the
public celebration, Whitey formulates a
murderous course of action.
Such outdoor scenes generally
took advantage of natural light, which
the filmmakers would enhance with
bounces and negative fill. "The only
time we used a light in a day scene like
that was if we started shooting in
sunshine and then a cloud came over,"
Flam explains. "In a close-up, we could
fake some sun to match earlier shots." In
such a case, they would use an Arrimax
18K, which Flam calls "the greatest
HMI there is. That's the only light that
can really fight sunshine."
For bigger scenes such as the
parade, the production would add a
third camera, often paired with a
Panavision ATZ 70-200mm (T3.5) or
Angenieux HR 50-500mm (T5.6)
zoom. Those lenses, Takayanagi
explains, "freed us to tighten down or go
wider and just grab the moment. We ran
the parade several times and grabbed it
at different shot sizes."
One of the biggest exterior setups
was the reveal of the murdered body of
gangster Buddy Leonard (Owen Burke)
in a car parked on a rainy side street.
The camera, on a Supertechno 50 crane,
starts in close on the corpse before
pulling back to a wider shot of police
cars on the street.
A whirligig with a Par can and a
spinning mirror at a 45-degree angle
bolstered the flashing red and blue
