Underground World
Goldfinger's Fort Knox-busting antics have nothing on the larcenous schemes of Mr. Fox and his prying circus. Unlike the big German, Fox and crew pull it off, cleaning out evil farmers Bunce, Boggis and Bean, before emerging blinking into an underground cave. "The cavern is based on Chiselhurst Caves, these flint mines just south of London," says Lowry. "We designed the set to have the same look and feel." The pinched poultry was equally grounded in verisimilitude. "Every piece of food in the film is from an actual place - something someone had for dinner the night before or that Wes had eaten in a restaurant." We'd like to think the jars of scrumpy were Bill Murray's idea.
