"… It’s The Only Take That Took 17 Takes, And I Never Filmed It. I Kept Filming Like Only 10 Seconds,

"… It’s the only take that took 17 takes, and I never filmed it. I kept filming like only 10 seconds, 10 seconds, and when Ilet him roll till the end, Lee was just so angry with me and with her becauseshe was saying really strange things and not acting right, but Lee has to stay in character… So the 17th take this is, and Lee is so angry because every time I would cut right here (when Catinca draws the curtain open) and start it again, and start it again, and start it again… And I just didn’t realized how badly she was going to freak, and I thought she looked at the camera, and I was terrified cause I knew I couldn’t get her near him for 3 days after this. But what happened was she’s kinda like an ostrich when something really bad happens, like she knows it’s serious now because I haven’t filmed it till this particular point and he’s talking loudly. She’s freaking out and she doesn’t want to look at him, like an ostrich… She would just look away from him and just stood right there…" - Tarsem Singh, taken from the DVD’s Director’s Commentary.
