Discussion Film / TheGreatRace

Deleted the following Not An Examples and Natter, some of which violated Example Indentation:

• Leslie, as the hero, is constantly clean-shaven.

• They do at one point - during the massive pie fight. Even then, he makes it mostly through clean. Then Maggie hits him with one completely by accident. And that one pie is the same color as his outfit - quite possibly the only pie in the entire pie fight that didn't have a colorful filling.
• Apparently, they had to stop the fight several times during filming so that Tony Curtis could change clothes - he was constantly getting hit by bits of flying pastry.

• Which was appropriated by a certain team of scientists down in Deep 13.
• That music (more strictly a "theme" than a motif) is associated rather with Professor Fate himself than with the button. If you listen to the track called "A Royal Waltz," you'll hear the same theme transformed into a Viennese style waltz-tune, reflecting how Prince Hapnick is the mitteleuropäisch version of Professor Fate, in a context where there is no button and no Max.

• Even Leslie gets this by the end. Not as bad as everyone else, but still...

• Not necessarily; during the bar fight, Lily punches Jack out rather handily.

• With his approach to all his (painfully) failed attempts in various daredevil feats, Professor Fate is constantly tempting... well, fate.

Deleted double post.
