Cheers Tiefdruckgebiet - glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, I LOVE the first scene where you see lots of people in the background in a variety of rubber and plastic macs. Reminds me of an old Czech film: Tři-Přání (Three Wishes). It is on here somewhere - well worth checking out for the wonderful mac scenes near the beginning of the film. Paradise on earth!

Hell yeah, never seen so many mac'ed people (male and female) in a movie! I think we see some background artists again and again (it's a movie set) but no matter it looks like a mackintosh paradise
