The Car's The Star


Here's one final photo from the set of Dorian Gray. It's a Fiat, but don't know from what date. Probably around 1915.

To answer the various questions that have been posed this week; alas no I won't be turning up as an extra in the movie, as they weren't filming when I was there, or even recruiting for the day. I would love to be in a film or TV programme. Maybe one day.

I also didn't see any actors wandering around. I had no idea they were making the film. I just happen to be taking a stroll through the college grounds, and came across all the activity by accident. I know nothing at all about the film or who's in it. I have no idea who Ben Barnes is & would probably be more interested in the older character actors anyway and of course the actresses.

  3. What a fantastic car. I can imagine you were in car heaven photographing this. I'm looking forward to this film - even tho it does have a bizarre ending. Maybe it won't.

  4. Almost a century old, huh... It's great how it looks so clean and brand new! It's as if you can hop in and take it out for a spin. Heh heh. It's quite distinct when you compare it to the wheels of today.
