Some Monday Movie Magic!
DID YOU KNOW:
In 1990's Total Recall, the only CGI used is the X-Ray Scanner at the Spaceport. Every other effect, including the Mars Train zoom, was done practically.
For the train window, reverse projection was used a la the landing scene in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Alright #FilmSky, for our Sunday Feature, we're getting ready to do a lecture this evening on Jim Sheridan's In the Name of the Father from 1993. When we scheduled it, we could not possibly have known how relevant the story of Gerry Conlon, the Guildford Four, and the Maguire Seven would be today.
