Michael Movie goes out with a bang The party the cast and crew of Never Trust an Honest Thief who spent a month filming in Georgetown packed their bags and left town a hang In one of the last b Is of local shooting the film crew orchestrated a car chase through town Wednesday that culminated in three separate crashes on Thursday the most spectacular of wh saw a Volkswagen Beetle hurtle into the ravine just in front of the River Drive bridge tie he paper mill dam It was definitely one of assignments Herald reporter Paul and I enjoyed covering Be closet P who isnt the prospect of a over an embankment and bursting into flames was delightful especially since job was to record the event in pictures I think that secretly weekly newspaper reporters harbor dreams of covering stories in exotic locales In the midst of some making battle So far an exploding car Is the Closest I come but it wasn bad substitute Pleasant assignment Like the July parade filming the car on was also para affair Four different cameras were posted in locations around the crash scene to record the event Art of nurseries told me he almost five hours just preparing the dirt ramp over which the car hurtled into the ravine The usual array of dim crew talkies was bolstered by those carried by members of Stunts Unlimited a California based stunt teams flown in for the crash While most of Ihc public was kept at bay on the side of the Credit I managed to get with feet of the crash scene next cameras close by a handy tree for protection The stunt car was driven by Snuffy Harrison and his first run was little disappointing As Snuffy came barreling over the guard rail and Into the ravine his boss was predicting car would do close to rolls before coming to a flaming halt Instead after a few feet of crazy driving the car managed one roll before Snuffy pressed a hand detonator in the car setting off a four pound bomb in the of the bug creating a pretty good explosion First run t Stunls Unlimited staff rushed to he flaming car extinguished It and helped Snuffy crawl to safety The crowd applauded but Snuffy looked anything but pleased in fact he teven look relieved at surviving as he peeled off his protective gear He wasn happy with the stunt and it seems they decided to take it out on the car The first step was to drive yeah drive the car back up the hill where it was rolled down empty Film of this will be in with Snuffy dm over the ravine the real punishment took place when Stunts Unlimited staff the car in the bottom of the ravine Based on the previous explosion I didn expect much of bang when I was told the car was to be detonated about feet from my perch I should figured out things were going to get a little holler when it took thestunt crew over hour to loid the gasoline power etc into the car and set fuses During the setup time was joined by few more photographers who decided to try some shots from a closer angle A sound min informed us he was setting up an open mike a few feet from us and urged us to slay quiet during tin explosion w sail poised in the open rH make my shot when I heard director call down from the bridge I j staff the car He them to cover and watch out It was only then I noticed duo parked only a little closer to the car thin me luddled an embankment some trees with few of sin as further cushion in front them I at this point my macho instincts woul In jlluw to flee More photographers The car went up in three explosions but I didn know that the time My shot of the f rM Most in the paper I jumped a little as the explosion turned out to be about 10 times stronger is the one in the original stunt In fact the power of the blast iclually pushed back I completely shakiness however A usually sedate female reporter parked about five feet from me let go with an impress and dived behind a tree with the first blast I curious as to how the men arc going to remove that from their tape it so safe bet the open mike us picked it up bout three seconds apart was destroyed Reporter got a sourvenlr piece of car as chink of the flaming wreck landed about a yard from his position It may not have been the midst of a war torn battleground I think we are both sat with our taste of fireworks I feel remis if I give my personal best wishes to the crew and cast of Honest Thief is they leave town to complete the few then held into the editing stage of the movie The Herald has appreciated your cooperation In making it easier for us to cover the event and I think it safe to say Ihc townspeople of nhncenjo Hatching In the liming We re looking toward to the movie spring release and let hope the film producers pick up director George idei and premnre the movie in I think they could definitely count on a packed I Who residents were getting cent iboul the movie being made in their downtown One resident told mc he saw a buddy his on Main St for the first time in years list week His pal complained about the Americans taking over downtown but friend reports the fellow was the first bigs of groceries he ever purchased on Main St I guess it is good for business to moke a movie Honest Thief schedule got little derailed lost week with a lab Tuesday night in Toronto Seems somebody downtown messed up the entire days film of thecar chase It ill had to be re shot Wednesday which put them one day behind schedule This created problems for the people

Official Plans and proposed Secondary Plan do not allow for It Population and density goals are now in place and those proposed do not support the density suggested All we asked was that council and
