If it's fresh at one point, and the next camera angle shows it half gone, and the next shows it fresh, you've lost continuity. It is up to the scriptwriters to keep references like that out of the picture. ---- "Fritz! They've killed Fritz!" -- Allan Pratt ...ihnp4!inuxc!iuvax!apratt (please do not respond to iuvax!notes)
