Aniya, “If Brad can’t drive, this whole film wasn’t going to work, and what Lewis was very happy to discover was that, you know, Brad had a lot of just natural ability right from the start. I don’t know where he got that, he rides motorcycles which I think has something to do with it but he’s just a very talented, naturally gifted driver which gave Lewis a lot of confidence that we might have a shot at pulling this off.”
Sinabi pa ng direktor, “Filming, with remotely-operated on-car cameras slimmed to a quarter of the size of those used on Top Gun, was ‘like a live stage play… shooting at 180 miles an hour’ literally. It was an adrenaline rush every weekend.”
Kuwento ni Kosinski, “Pitt and Idris had months of training. When you see Brad driving, that’s not acting. He’s really concentrating on keeping that car on the track and out of the wall during all those scenes so that’s something that you just can’t fake.”
