WHEN HORSTMANN MET REINER . . .
    "After thorough testing, we determined the best approach would be to make the hanging panels from loosely woven fabric and simultaneously use standard projection on the front while inverting the exact same image onto the rear fabric panel. The two images converged onto the center of the screen to produce quite a unique effect."
    Instrumental in helping Triple Horse achieve such a successful shoot was an incredible team headed by producer, John Hembree; writer-producer from Program and Production at Turner Classic Movies, Ruth Ann Millman; set designer, Rick Morganelli; with Turner Classic Movies being represented by Tom Brown, Vice President of Program and Production and Shannon Davis-Forsyth, Vice President of On Air and Network Creative.
    "As a director," Horstmann said, "it was a real privilege to work with such a great filmmaker-one I believe is making essential films for our time. He has such an impressive body of work already. And he has such diversity. Think about the difference between films like This is Spinal Tap and Stand by Me. Thanks to his skill and flexibility, we were able to shoot 27 opens, closes, and promos in a day and a half. "Everyone agreed that working with Rob Reiner was far from misery. And his 'Essential' picks are certainly the sure thing when it comes to some of the best Hollywood has produced. (page 3)
