![]() This was a really cool way of figuring out how some complex UIs were built in top tier apps. ![]() I don’t know if this is possible anymore but back in the day you could inject Reveal into apps from the App Store (caveat: only on a jailbroken iPhone!) and inspect the view hierarchy of your favorite apps. ![]() But, Xcode’s view hierarchy debugging is free so you can always start there. Also it doesn’t crash, which is something I can’t honestly say about Xcode. Reveal is much more powerful and lets you not just inspect your view hierarchy but edit it as well. ![]() You might say well Xcode does that, which it does but only to a certain extent. Reveal is a runtime debugging app that lets you debug view layout and rendering problems very easily. He talked in more details about this with other fans of the film on threads which can be found at, where he also posted some pictures of the Charger.Speaking of debugging, there are several tools that will enhance your workflow but my favorite has to be Reveal($$). He kept the car with him for few years but sadly, his ex-wife had an accident while driving the car where she and her sister drove over the ramp of the freeway and took out the guardrail and although they survived, Charger was destroyed. Last Charger, 1969 R/T model, was kept by studio and bought by a fan of the film pretty soon after it was released, and he restored the car which still had all the damage from the filming. Film crew then had to use the second Charger, 1969 base coupe model (notice in few scenes in the film how Charger is missing R/T emblems, that was this car) for another attempt and this time they got the scene right. The 1968 R/T Charger that was mostly used for crash scenes (for example, before Larry pushes cop car in the river it's clearly obvious that he's driving '68 R/T Charger) was originally used in train crash scene, however something went wrong during filming and car got completely destroyed. Fans of the film did however managed to find out what happened to all three Dodge Chargers used in the film. While all six 1972 Dodge Polara police cars were destroyed during filming, nobody knows what happened to the two 1966 Chevrolet Impalas, like were they destroyed during filming and what happened with them later. Haskell's rejected score and theme song was however used in trailers for the film. He tried to explain that to Haskell, but since it didn't work, he talked to producers who agreed to remove the score, so final film only has Marjorie McCoy's song Time Is Such A Funny Thing playing at opening and ending credits, and incidental radio music is heard in couple scenes. ![]() This is why Hough wanted "a sad, slow, more of a soulful and mournful country western-like score". Reason why Hough rejected his score is because after seeing early cut of the film with it, he realized that although Haskell did a good job, his score made the movie seem more warm and lighthearted, and altered the tone and atmosphere and made it feel like a more happier film, which is how Haskell felt the movie is while Hough always felt it was lot more of a sad story. Director John Hough confirmed in DVD and Blu-Ray commentary that the film originally did had a musical score which was composed by Jimmie Haskell who is still credited in the film although none of his score was left in it. ![]()
