Way back when the Duke was saying
"Waaaaal, I'm gonna jump on my horsee and ride off into the sunset"...
The horses didn't need fast charging. 35mm cameras used batteries.
When they filmed the slock "Racing With The Moon" in my front yard, I spied on them. I also fed the head actor a steak sandwich after he moaned about being forced to eat from a "gut wagon". Loved how they morphed The Thanksgiving Coffee Company, into a tattoo parlor.
Later on, a movie crewman shooting a commercial for a new lemon soda pop wanted 12 8-D batteries. "We're frozen without those batteries". I traveled 15 miles to Ave O and 18th St East in Lancaster, CA. to the set. The guy wanted me to run a credit card impression on the spot and take the batteries from the bed of the Mitsubishi Mighty Max. I impressed his card and gave him a yet to be signed copy.
"I'll be right back"
The guy started screaming at me.
When I returned to the vendor's warehouse, I called VISA to verify purchase.
"We're sorry, but that account has been closed"
At least I spied on their set for two hours. The actors who verbally demanded EVIAN water in the spritz bottles for their face and hands.
And some of you wonder why I am a cynic...
