The Tropical saga cars

 
Versión en español

Motor vehicles have been the object of desire of human beings since their conception, at the end of the 19th century. This technological revolution broke down geographical barriers and the limits of time. Enzo Ferrari went so far as to affirm that "cars are the symbol of extreme freedom for man". He came up short on his claim.

The celluloid world arrived soon after thanks to the Lumière Brothers and scenes with motorized cars were soon filmed, which were symbols of the status and power of their owners. Its introduction into the cinematographic field was gradual, from less to more, and decades later, the exhaust pipes roared in the fundamental shots and the chases at dizzying speeds caused applause in the projection rooms. Many cult films such as Bullitt, The Italian job, Training Day or David Cronenberg's Crash interpret the figure of the automobile from very different perspectives, each one more enriching.

In the tropical saga, automobiles have also been an essential element and in this modest research article the cars that have been part of the tropical films directed by Max Bellocchio between 2002 and 2009 are compiled. Join me on this journey that takes place between acceleration, rubber chips and the fragrant aroma of 98 octane gasoline. And, of course, we must remember that this article is full of SPOILERS, so if you haven't seen these films yet, don't even think about continuing reading.

BMW Serie 7 e38. Sunrise (2002)

This 7-series model was the third generation of the flagship of the Bavarian brand and, in total, 327,000 e38 7-series units were sold between 1994 and 2001. The most powerful version was a 750i 12-cylinder gasoline engine with 326 horsepower. . Most likely, the one owned by Lenka in Sunrise, played by industry legend Jennifer Dior, since the license plate indicates that it's registered in the Alpes-Maritimes region (06) and La Riviera doesn't mess around. The 750i was, in turn, Bond's car in "Tomorrow Never Dies" and that escape between shots in a Hamburg parking lot is an icon for spy movie lovers.

In addition, this car also had a leading role in Transporter because Frank Martin (played by Jason Statham) made his deliveries at the wheel of this jewel of German engineering. How can we forget that police chase along the seafront in Nice causing real chaos among the ranks of the gendarmerie!

In this scene from the film Sunrise, Lenka, a property manager and developer, strides up to her car at a sumptuous villa located in the Le Devens development, in Mougins, near Cannes. Leaning against the side of her BMW 7 Series in Stratus Metallic, she makes a call to her employees, Susan and Jennifer, who are closing a land acquisition deal in the Caribbean.

Lenka has extensive experience in the purchase of islands and islets for the construction of luxury resorts and casinos. She likes to travel "first class" and that's why she chose this German sedan from the F segment. She is a whim as a reward for her excellent performance in the profession.

Renault Espace III. Sunrise (2002)

This Renault Espace model was the third generation of this minivan and was manufactured from 1997 to 2003. In total, 365,200 units of Espace III were sold, the car for traveling with the family par excellence. As a curiosity, it is necessary to remember that a Spider version was developed in 1998 to participate in the 24 hours of Le Mans.

A practical Espace III is the car Martin chooses to pick up newcomers Susan and Jennifer in the film Sunrise. In theory, they have reached the Isle of St Loupen, but this villa that can be seen at the bottom of the frame is a mansion located in the Le Devens de Mougins development, next to Cannes. We assume that this car has the 190 horsepower V6 block engine, because the island of "St Loupen" is full of bandits and professional con men.

In the context of the film, we assume that Martin, one of Ted's most loyal assistants, drives one of the cars that the Sunrise INC company uses to transport suppliers and customers to the Bayahibe-La Romana airport (the villa is supposed to be It is in the Dominican Republic, although we have already mentioned that it is in the south of France). It is a vehicle with a large boot capacity and spacious seats, perfect for transporting exhausted travelers after a journey by plane.

Susan and Jenny cheekily ask Martin if they can phone him to be his personal driver. Despite his angelic tone of voice, his intentions are spurious. Martin will go to the villa that night for dinner and there he will get to know the girls in depth.

Renault Megane Cabrio 1st gen. Tropical Heat (2003)

The first generation Renault Megane is one of the symbols of the French firm and was in production between 1995 and 2002. The Megane project consisted of a series of different solutions based on a common chassis, with the aim of lowering costs and satisfying the needs a larger number of potential buyers. Specifically, the Megane Cabriolet went on sale in 1997.

This French-designed car was most likely manufactured at the Envigado, Colombia factory (where the Megane has been assembled since 2000) given its geographical proximity to Guadeloupe. Envigado is infamous for the Medellín Cartel. Pablo Emilio Escobar Gaviria was a prisoner in those parts when he built his own prison named "La Catedral".

This stunning Renault Megane Cabrio is the car that Robert rents at the airport to transport the girls from the Clipper calendar to the Pointe-a-Pitre pier, on the island of Guadeloupe. There Helmut awaits them on his yacht, very well accompanied by two women of Swedish nationality.

Apparently, Robert is the most wasteful partner of the duo of photographers and has rented this "sports car" to impress Viktoria, Bernadette and Darma, with the aim of swanking in front of the girls. This muscular and cunning young Gaul has flown with them from old Europe. In the cabrio, they tour part of the island with the top up and with their hair combed by the Caribbean wind.

In the background there is pounding techno music composed specifically by Oreste Fiengo, which turns the scene into a fragment worthy of an MTV video clip from the mid-nineties.

Daewoo Lanos SX. Tropical Heat (2003)

The Daewoo Lanos were manufactured by the Korean firm from 1997 to 2002. This car was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and, initially, up to 150 prototypes were assembled in the three different bodies: 3- and 5-door hatchbacks and 4-door sedan, which were tested in all corners of the planet to smooth out any defects before launching on the market.

A brilliant metaphor is the one that Max Bellocchio presents us with this vehicle. When Robert decides to take revenge on his partner Helmut and betray his new girlfriend Viktoria, he opts to rent this low-profile Korean car in Deep Bluish Green. The reason is not only to be discreet and try not to attract attention, but also to spend less money on rent now that the company is not covering the costs. With the money that Helmut generated, Robert chose to rent Cabrio cars. Now that he is a sole member, he prefers to rent vehicles at a lower price.

Another detail is that, instead of choosing the compact Lanos, undoubtedly cheaper, Robert leases the sedan version. With his murderous instincts unleashed on him, he sure as hell does it in anticipation of having to haul another body in the trunk.

Robert stealthily drives to one of the island's suburbs. Greta is waiting for him there, inside a rather dilapidated wooden house. Viktoria catches them red-handed and uses Robert's rental car to go to a fishing supply store. Nerves have led Robert to leave the keys in the Daewoo. Viktoria acquires an underwater harpoon, and returns with the determination to murder the couple in cold blood and appropriate the briefcase with the money.

Max shoots a close-up inside the Daewoo Lanos, where Viktoria caresses her murder weapon, a mischievous smile playing across her lips.

Mercedes SLK R170. Caribbean Vacation (2003)

The Mercedes SLK R107, the first to see the light of day in this successful series, was in production from 1996 to 2004 and the one that appears in the film is a unit in silver gray metallic and magma rot leather interior. This roadster model was presented at the Turin Motor Show on April 22, 1996 and includes a retractable cover that, once collected, is housed in the trunk itself.

Franco buys this car as soon as he arrives in Guadeloupe, with the money he has obtained by selling off the diamonds he appropriated in his old office. He is nouveau riche and has as much ambition as little brain.

With his German car, he drives through Bas du fort with the windows down and Latin music playing on the speakers, fueling envy and making enemies among the locals. He drives wearing a cacique hat and with his European girlfriend wrapped in a tiny dress. Bad taste in capital letters. 

In the Impasse du Madrepore, Franco owns one of his villas with a pool. He parks the Mercedes at the door and they go up the access steps to the garden, where they will relax properly.

Porsche 968. Caribbean Vacation (2003)

This exclusive convertible was manufactured by the Zuffenhausen firm between 1992 and 1995. Its total production reached 12,776 units. This model was the last Porsche sports car to feature a front engine and it remains so to this day.

Life seems to be smiling on Franco, who towards the end of the film is already driving a black metallic supercar that he always drives pristine. The sale of gems is going very well and he has risen through the ranks of the underworld. The Antillean mafia fears him, or so he believes.

In the scene above, Franco talks to one of his hitmen, Dario, in front of the Café Cubano. There they discuss a possible gem-trafficking operation with a "dangerous guy." Franco reassures his right hand by arguing that he has already faced the Triads, the Yakuza, the Camorra and Colombian drug traffickers... However, this collector's car will be the prelude to the end. Like Icarus, Franco flies too high and ends up at the bottom of his ambition pits.

Mitsubishi L200. Tequila Bum Bum (2003)

This pick up from the Japanese firm Mitsubishi belongs to the D segment. The one that appears in the feature film is the third generation, which was marketed between 1998 and 2005. It is a vehicle that achieved great success in the Dakar with its Strakar version, driven between others, by the Lusitanian Carlos Sousa.

Luis Zahera drives this car in Sorogoyen's masterpiece, As Bestas, and at the wheel, tries to make life miserable for a French immigrant couple. Almost certainly, Sorogoyen chose this car for this ominous character bearing in mind that it was also driven by Franco in Tequila Bum Bum. It must be remembered that Franco decides to spend the money borrowed by his friends to rent this pickup, claiming to have run out of money. An example of excessive selfishness. In the image above we can see how he tries to help her friend get into the back of the 4x4, to better enjoy the views of Le Piton de la Fournaise, on the island of Réunion.

The funniest thing about this scene is that Franco decides to spend the money borrowed from his fellow travelers. He has run out of money after a robbery scam and has needed help from his friends. Instead of acting prudently, blinded by the bills just taken from the ATM, he concludes that it will be better to melt all the money to avoid more scams in the future. Lateral thinking.

The music chosen for this dusty scene, which evokes stills from Oliver Stone's "Hell Turn," is a guitar-based melody composed by musician Oreste Fiengo. After approaching the active volcano of the French colony, they enjoy the wonderful views of a desolate landscape reminiscent of the Wadi Rum desert.

Mercedes R107 SL. Ocean Dream (2004)

This classic car was produced for almost two decades, from 1971 to 1989, because its design continues to attract the eyes of motor lovers even today. In the film we are only shown the hood of the vehicle and thus it is very difficult to know if it was one of the initial versions or a later evolution. It should be noted that this car has appeared in many movies, but we highlight that it appears in "For your eyes only", in a scene in Corfu (Greece).

The most powerful engine in the catalog was an 8-cylinder V with 5,000 cubic centimeters and 231 horsepower, which propelled the 1,500 kilograms of weight with fierceness and agility. By deduction, it is the one that Pascal owned, since his tour operator agency was one of the most requested on the entire island of Martinique (Reunion, actually).

The symbolism of this car in the movie Ocean Dream is very noteworthy for everything that surrounds the scene. Putting ourselves in context, Pascal takes many clients to La Villa du Soleil (a hotel in Saint Gilles les Bains, now closed). So many clients that he even has a permanent suite that he uses as an office. There he asks Robert Duvall, his employee and friend of his, to polish his Mercedes R107 SL.

Robert, on the run from the police for a horrendous crime, asked for his help, and Pascal gave him employment, shelter and a new identity, but not content with that, he also decided to win over Sarah, Pascal's devious wife. When Robert is carefully rubbing the enamel on the Mercedes, Interpol shows up and arrests him for the murder of his wife, Silvia. From the balcony of the room, Pascal watches with a grimace as his friend, the traitor, is handcuffed and arrested by the gendarmes.

Peugeot 607. Sin Island (2004)

The sedans of generalist brands have passed away. There just doesn't seem to be a market for them. Nowadays, whoever wants a saloon opts for a premium brand that belongs to the Teutonic triple entente or similar (BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Lexus...). The Peugeot 607 was one of those great emblems that combined the quality of materials with a logo on the front that denoted mediocrity. At the level of equipment and motorization it did not have much to envy from its rivals, but it did not conquer the general public.

In 1999, the Peugeot 607 was presented at the Frankfurt Motor Show and was on sale until 2010. Unfortunately, 2001 was its sales peak and 34,000 units were not exceeded in that calendar year. In the world of celluloid, he had stellar appearances in films like Taxi 3 or Transporter, always as a secret police car and with a provisional light attached to the roof.

We are facing a dark and scary scene, and it was a real challenge to discover the car model it was. The protagonist of the film, the writer of novels for adults Edgar, puts on a cap like the classic chauffeurs and contemplates from the front seat and without blinking, the authentic love of a young couple. The writer was only looking for inspiration, and received a severe stiff neck in return.

The martelados, occupying the wide rear seats in beige leather, tell each other everything they feel with a penetrating look. A scene of high hormonal intensity, paired with futuristic electronic music that recalls, saving the distance, the car wash scene that David Cronenberg masterfully directed in his uncomfortable Crash of 1996.

Mitsubishi Carisma. Sunset Memories (2004)

This D-segment car was produced by Mitsubishi but co-developed by the Swedish brand Volvo. It is palpable that the rear of this three-volume saloon is reminiscent of the legendary first-generation S60. The total production of the Carisma reached the not inconsiderable figure of 350,000 vehicles, and this unit in question is a 4-door hatchback version (with trunk) in metallic dark green finish.

The engine with the highest performance of this model reached 280 hp but it was not a car that stood out from the competitors due to its sporting spirit or its design since, paradoxically, it lacked some "charisma". This attempt by Mitsubishi to conquer the saloon sector in Europe was not the success that the Japanese expected.

This scene from Sunset Memories is an abrupt ending and the key moment of the film. In this flashback of Steve, it can be seen how his wife leaves with a guest at the Haciendas el Choco, never to return. Steve watches the stealthy cuckold couple from the window, but concludes that acting would be useless. His wife's heart already belongs to another man.

Steve ends by saying that, despite his spite, he will always be waiting for his wife, until the end of days. Precious and sincere.

Toyota Previa 1st gen. Fashion in Paradise (2005)

A first-generation Toyota Previa in Garnet Red Pearl monopolizes the first images of this 2005 film. This dynamic van was designed by Tokuo Fukuichi and was in production from 1992 to 2000. Its peculiar ovoid line design stands out for its generous glazed surface, which allows you to enjoy the views. Consequently, it is the perfect vehicle for transporting tourists. Its interior is spacious like few others, and has 7 seats that allow its occupants to travel in maximum comfort.

In the technical section, it should be noted that the engine was mounted in the central part, in the space between the driver and the co-driver, which gives it an ideal weight distribution and a very low center of gravity. Some did not hesitate to classify it as a supercar converted into a minivan.

In the scene we can see a group of young people traveling through the roads of Lomas Mironas, near Cabarete, in a Toyota Previa driven by a local driver. The model Claudia Schiffel comes in tired, hungry and thirsty, and she won't stop complaining. Her transatlantic flight has left him traumatized.

Photographer Calvin and her producer Paul try to calm her down by giving her mineral water "hotter than a pee" and Claudia spits it out like a sprinkler all over the upholstery. Upon reaching their destination, farm number 42 of the Haciendas El Choco, Sosúa, the laments do not stop, and the star model describes the farm as an "unclean place"... We have already laid the foundations for a very good comedy film Directed by Max Bellocchio.

Land Rover Defender. Deadly Love in Paradise (2005)

This British SUV was produced from 1983 to 2016 and has become an icon of four-wheel drive vehicles. Its design was derived from the Land Rover I, II and III so the design pattern of this car can be said to have been in production for 68 years, which is an absolutely fascinating number. In Stephen Frears' movie "The Queen," the Queen of England was driving this tough car around the Balmoral estate until the transmission broke.

One of the competitions that has helped give it an aura of myth in the 4x4 sector has been the Camel Trophy, which toured endless tropical climates from the early 80s to the dawn of the new millennium. The Camel tobacco company and the car brand itself sponsored this race that emulated the challenges faced by the military in World War II in southern latitudes, making their way through humid jungles and lush jungles.

The scene in this film, with the Defender as master of the frame, takes place in a nature reserve on the island of Guadeloupe. At the wheel of the SUV is Michel, who is a French guide based in the Antilles and who is very well connected in Pointe-a-Pitre.

Michel is guiding two European tourists, one blonde and one brunette. He drives the white Land Rover through a shallow body of water, heading towards Le saut du bras du fort. They want fun and adventure, and they're going to get what they've been looking for.

Opel Tigra 1st gen. Deadly Love in Paradise (2005)

The first generation Opel Tigra has already become a symbol of the 1990s. The debut of the Tigra was well received by young audiences and was in production from 1994 to 2001. It was followed by a second generation, with more contained sales. .

The Tigra was presented with honors at the 1993 Frankfurt Motor Show and featured two gasoline engines, with low horsepower but also weighing just 1,000 kilograms. 256,292 units of this model were manufactured at the factory in Figueruelas, a dusty town near Zaragoza, in northern Spain.

The tragic ending of Deadly Love in Paradise stuns the viewer, who contemplates up to three murders in a matter of 1 minute of footage. Deb dies with a bullet to the head, and Valentine and Jack poisoned by some toxic substance with immediate effect...

Specifically, Jack dies leaning on the front wing of his brand new Magma red Opel Tigra, which he pampered more than his wife.

Mini Cooper MK VI. Tropical Twins (2006)

The Anglo-Saxon utility par excellence, the Mini Cooper, could not be missing from the tropical saga. This model, in the British Racing Green hue, stands out for its retractable roof, which makes it a desirable collector's item. Its interior in cream leather and its steering wheel in mahogany wood give it a plus of exclusivity.

The Mini Cooper was the car of the English comedian Mr. Bean and also the car used by Jason Bourne to outwit the entire Paris police in "The Bourne Identity". It is also the absolute protagonist in The Italian Job... The Mini Cooper is a movie classic that is also present in auteur films.

In Tropical Twins, Ventura calls his twin brother, who is currently immersed in a photo shoot with a Thai model. British Racing Green. polished with care, it stands out in the middle of the garden area, on the outskirts of Paris.

After arranging a meeting with the Thai girl, he will have to change vehicles to give his client a premium service.

Rolls Royce Silver Spirit III. Tropical Twins (2006)

Rolls Royce is one of the most prestigious automobile companies on the market and its Silver Spirit III is a work of art that remains in the collective imagination of fans of luxury and the motor world. This unique model, in Royal Blue, appeared in the film Tropical Twins, driving in front of the magnificent Chateau du Rouillon in Chartrettes.

The Silver Spirit III was produced between 1994 and 1998. 699 Spirit of Ecstasy-branded "wardrobes on wheels" rolled down roads around the globe. Undoubtedly, a car for those who pursue personal self-realization, which Max Bellocchio chose to increase the legend of the Tropical saga.

In this scene, moments after Frank's wife asks James (the driver) for some privacy, Ventura is left alone with two women in the back of the limo. Ventura has chosen this elitist and exclusive classic to entertain the wife of his client and close a key transaction for his professional career.

After a small disagreement, they will access the castle of Rouillon, which stands on the banks of the Seine, and will continue with the lively conversation that they had begun inside the Rolls Royce.

Fiat Panda 2nd gen. African Temptation (2006)

The Fiat Panda is one of the most traditional Italian cars, and this time we are dealing with a second generation Panda, which is the car that Bruno, Marco and Sergio have rented to go to the Dzaoudzi Pamandzi airport. The relationship with Sandra is at an impasse and they decide to use a local car rental agency.

This design, which replaced the original Panda, was manufactured between 2003 and 2012 at the Tychi factory, in Silesian Voldoviat, Poland. It is a utility (segment A), very versatile and functional, which won the Best Car of the Year Award in Europe in 2004.

In this scene, close to the ending of the film, the three photographers (Sergio, Marco and Bruno) are placing the luggage in the trunk. They need to make the most of their sense of space because the 206-liter capacity of their trunk does not give much of themselves.

At one point, Bruno hugs his backpack and doesn't let anyone put their hand on it, because there he has the backup with his precious snapshots with which he hopes to win the photo contest. The poor man does not know what awaits him...

Fiat Punto 2nd gen. African Temptation (2006)

This Fiat design was the brainchild of Peter Fassbender and was launched on the market in 1999, as the second generation of the Punto. It was on the market until 2012, although it has shared production with the third-generation Punto in recent years. At the end of the 20th century, it obtained 4 Euro NCAP stars in the crash test: double the score of the first generation of Fiat Punto. A notable improvement without a doubt.

An Italian utility vehicle in a discreet white color that had to appear in these film productions by Neapolitan filmmaker Max Bellocchio, as a nod to his homeland.

In this stretch of footage, the Oriental gives Sergio a CD, in exchange for a 500-euro bill. This is the backup copy of Bruno's photographs, which the Thai woman stole from him when he got lost on the beach.

After this unfair and effective investment, Sergio and Marco have secured victory in the Cross World Airlines photography contest, and an advertising contract that will bring them huge benefits for years to come... Powerful gentleman Don Dinero.

Suzuki Jimny 2nd gen. African Temptation (2006)

The Suzuki Jimny, called Samurai in Europe and America, and Santana in Spain, is an affordable SUV with a robust chassis. A rough diamond ideal for beach areas. Its reliability and its convertible versions, very flirtatious, have achieved that nowadays these cars have even increased in value in the second-hand market, with respect to their starting price. The one in this film was probably assembled in the factory in Nairobi, Kenya, given its proximity to the island of Mayotte.

The model that appears in African Temptation is a second generation Jimny, one of those manufactured between 1981 and 2005. 24 years of uninterrupted production that make it a best seller from the Japanese firm.

Sergio, Marco and Bruno are picked up by Sandra in a remote corner of the island of Mayotte, and together they travel the winding roads of the African island to the Hotel Les Bangas. They have traveled to this archipelago in the Indian Ocean to participate in a Cross World Airlines photo contest, with the firm intention of winning first prize.

Their competitiveness will lead to foul play, and cheating will be the usual trend during this film directed by Bellocchio.

Suzuki Jimny 3rd gen. Summermix Job in Guadaloupe (2007)

The generation that appears in Summermix Job in Guadaloupe is the third, which was manufactured from 1998 to 2011, so it spent many years sharing sales with the 2nd generation. Being a vehicle from Guadalupe, it is possible that this particular model was assembled in the factory in the capital of Colombia, Bogotá.

Sabrina, Barbara, Megan and Nicole are picked up at the airport by Mike, one of Oscar's henchmen. On the way to the coffee plantation, the three of them enjoy the Antillean breeze thanks to the fact that the Suzuki Jimny from the Le Fleur company is a convertible model, perfect to play the plim.

The three blondes in the group stood at the back, becoming the center of attention and a distraction for Guadeloupean drivers, causing chaos on the roads near Pointe-a-Pitre.

In the second part of this Summermix mini-saga Job in Guadeloupe has a testimonial appearance, since two of the candidates take one of the boys to dance in the humid forest (video below these lines).

Volkswagen Golf. Summermix Job in Guadeloupe 2 (2007)

Golfs are one of the cars that have had the most sales success among young middle-class people with aspirations. It currently has 7 generations and its name derives from Gulf Stream, from the gulf currents. It belongs to the C segment and has been on sale continuously since 1974.

Volkswagen, as its name suggests, is the people's car, and that's why Mario, an employee who takes care of Óscar's garden. In the film, Óscar asks him to lend it to him and when he has it in his possession, he sells it to get cash and carry out his operation with investors...

You get only 7,000 euros for it, which is not much considering the good condition the unit was in. Your buyer will never receive the documentation, but the eviction recovery protects him. In the end, karma will end up paying Oscar back.

BMW Serie 5 e60. Summermix Job in Guadeloupe 2 (2007)

This BMW 5 Series design was controversial and loved in equal measure. The outlandish front, designed by Chris Bangle, did not convince the classic fans of the Munich brand. Of course, in the M5 version, with the much more radical skirts, it improved a lot, but it will not go down in history as one of the German firm's favorites.

Óscar appears to have made a sale and transaction of a car twice, and on this occasion he is parting with one of his assets, for only 41,000 euros, despite the fact that the car marks less than 1,000 euros in the odometer. Óscar's wish is to buy it back a week later, paying 45,000 euros for it, if necessary, but he will never be able to get it back.

BMW X5 e53. Caribbean Sea Conspiracy (2007)

The BMW X5 e53 was the first 4x4 SUV from the spa brand. Now it was the familiar Touring trims that were providing such needs, but in 1999 it became more apparent that there was a potential demand for premium all-terrain vehicles for people who didn't throw themselves down the chimney over misunderstandings. These SUVs are versatile due to their large trunk capacity, but they are not very practical for the city, and they consume more fuel than hell.

The X5s are manufactured at the Spartanburg factory in the state of South Carolina, in the United States.

For this occasion, an X5 was devised in a dark tone, most likely in a cosmosschwarz metallic paint.

The X5 scene is pivotal in Caribbean Sea Conspiracy because lead Sam Stiller entered all the things that Hans Stoller and Mark Berti previously negotiated.

However, to the sadness of the fans, the BMW X5 e53 is only recognizable by its left front headlight and only begs for Sam to hide in a curious, but effective way.

I thought it was great that Max Bellocchio filmed it during the show, but sadly this shot didn't take place.

THE END
