Oops, it's been a few years and I just realized I got things a little 
mixed up . We (Digital Domain) did the shots of the house getting 
washed away, the cow getting hit by the car, the guys floating in the 
river and them trying to get on the train. Cinesite did the bulk of the 
digital color timing, which was a pretty big deal back then, because it 
was one of the first attempts at such a thing. Mike was shuttling back 
and forth between Cinesite and Digital Domain in a collaborative effort 
between the two companies. Sorry about that.
