another shot of the ‘rex beans’ ad from ken russell’s ‘tommy.’  if you look close, i think you can see the cloaked camera reflected in the silver dome.

Rare pictures of Roger Daltrey drowning (above and right). After falling through the mirror into the water, Tommy is seen in slow motion underwater. This, another tricky shot, was filmed with the camera behind the observation window of a swimming pool. In order to sink lower and rise slower, Roger Daltrey emptied his lungs of air before jumping in. On this occasion he swallowed a lot of water and was struggling to get out. The cameras were still running until it occured to everyone that he was in trouble. Three people jumped in and pulled him out. In Hollywood days, an accident like this would have been exploited for publicity, but the many ‘mishaps’ that occured while filming ‘Tommy’ were deliberately kept out of the press.”
