gba_cmdr 08 Mar 2003 15:19:52	Hi, I've noticed in the Call Sheets that Landau and Bain are always picked up separately -- was there a reason for this? Was it in their contract that they get their own individual chaffeurs??
Martin 08 Mar 2003 16:02:13	It was in the Landau's contract that they were picked up by a Rolls Royce. Sometimes there were picked up together (for instance, see the The Exiles and One Moment of Humanity script-to-screen call sheet). In most cases they seem to have been picked up separately, perhaps because they had different make-up calls (Martin Landau had 1 hour in make-up, Barbara had 90 minutes- perhaps Martin liked an extra hour in bed...)

Martin 11 Mar 2003 13:36:24	Yes, it was in their contracts that Barry and Catherine got their own chauffeur driven car as well. Everyone else had to make their own way from London to Pinewood (I've seen one call sheet for space 1999 that includes the bus timetable!) Martin

Hi,
