Day 6

Second Unit. We are again shooting the Monk fight, this time with stunt doubles replacing our star. He only has to kill two Monks.

Day 7

The second monk isn’t dead yet. Either this monk is going to have the longest death sequence since Burt Reynolds’s career, or we are going to finish early. He has a sword sticking out his back (an Exit Wound, if you like) and the stunt co-ordinator says we still have 20 more set-ups to do!

“Well, isn’t he nearly dead, yet, he doesn’t look too well!?”

“We are going to kill him from many different angles!”

Where’s Meg Ryan in this scene I think to myself.

We finish early.
