Principal shooting started on 16 September 1985 and lasted until late November. Scenes where Christopher accidentally climbs in Mary’s mother’s bedroom, thinking it is Mary’s and a scene where Christopher and Tricky escape a tavern after a scare of bats were not in the shooting script and added while filming. The end of the film is also different from the original script. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
