I’ve always thought there was something not
quite right about exterior film footage of Kandersfeld in ‘Do Not Forsake Me Oh
My Darling. The top frame is taken from film as the Colonel/6 drives into Kandersfeld.
The one below, the mirror image of the other, no I’ve not been messing it
about, but someone in the cutting room working on ‘the Prisoner’ did. The other
difference is the lightness of the top frame of film. The one below inserted
for a few seconds as the waiter at the café directs the Colonel/6 to Herr Halen’s
barber's shop. It is a pity that the film editor saw fit to put in this single frame
of film {mirrored} because it stands out too much. All that had to be done was
to insert the same frame of film un-mirrored, that way no-one would have noticed.
Be seeing you
