Did you manage to squeeze yourself into shot?
No, wouldn't even have tried... Clear security perimeter, things like that. They were shooting a near-car pile-up right next to the Gare Saint-Charles train station, meaning -- lots of onlookers, lots of security. They rehearsed the scene 2 or 3 times, with the stunt vehicles stopping right before the end each time, and then they shot the final scene in a single shot[1], the final scene is about 5-10 seconds in the finished film, it took them over an hour to do it. What a waste of time and money... The scene wasn't even very exciting. I think they wanted to do a French Bullit with comedy... It was a box-office success with 3 sequels, but also made Luc Besson (the movie's producer) suddenly look like the French George Lucas, instead of, I don't know, the guy who made Leon such an endearing film.

Anyway! :P

I still have a videotape of a cable show I was interviewed in back in 1996[2]... Now that was fun. I had hippie hair and looked obviously and painfully stressed. Ah ah, oh dear oh dear.
 1. And wrecked one of the cars in the process, as planned!
 2. It was about my first website... Yeah, at the time I was one of the pioneers, so everything I made turned into gold. Now, the new generation keeps stealing my thunder :P
