Tweet of the Day, Committing To The Bit edition. Yeah, you gotta use a shot like that when the universe just hands it to you. #OTD in 1970, TORA! TORA! TORA! premiered. The spectacular scene with a P-40 crashing into other fighters was an accident caused when the stunt radio-controlled plane went out of control. The crew seen running for their lives were not acting. The director decided to use the shot. pic.twitter.com/ZwK7p8jxRB— U.S. Naval Institute (@NavalInstitute) September 23, 2022 Via @SonnyBunch.
I’d use the shot. It has…..verisimilitude.
