To get that shot, the film makers must have built a wooden frame to create a flat area for the actors to lay, it would have extended well into the front seat area, and depending on the size of the actor, his feet were probably touching the steering wheel. Also, they would have had just a couple of feet between where they were laying and the headliner of the car...you can see that in the photo, note how close the actresses head is to the glass. Again, in films what you see is not always real. -- Last edit: 2013-12-05 13:51:41
