Premium Member Olle Knutson Posted October 10, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) There is a shot in the opening scene that is absolutely amazing. Its the one where the only thing you see is crowded four lane freeway. Ever since I saw the film 20 years ago been intrigued by this specific shot. Soooo Im in LA right now and want to go there. Does anyone know where this is? I even brought my 16mm a-cam to try and recreate it!!!

Premium Member Tyler Purcell Posted October 11, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted October 11, 2019 Well, I know LA pretty good and that center divider doesn't exist anymore anywhere in LA today. They've cleaned up the highways quite a bit since then, so since it's a tight shot, it's super hard to give a definitive answer. The only "clue" is the raised breakdown lane. That's pretty common on the 405 and on the 5 in some places, but a 4 lane highway is kinda rare these days, there are only a few spots like that left. Nearly all the highways today use jersey barriers in the center. So it's not easy.... I hope someone else may know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webster Colcord Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Is it a chunk of the 10 freeway heading West? I haven't lived down there since 2015, but it looks kinda familiar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Tyler Purcell Posted October 11, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted October 11, 2019 I was thinking the 10 as well, but way further out east. It's just, the 10 is so wide these days, it's hard to tell what it use to look like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
