RICHARD PRICE (WRITER): They found a street [for Hamsterdam] that they didn’t have to set-dress at all. It just looked like Dante’s hell. The problem was, right before they started shooting, they realized that you could see, on a rise, the back of a museum. The museum called the city, complaining, and refused to be in a shot, and the city came back and says, “You can’t shoot there.” They looked at each other. What are we going to do? They moved literally fifty yards that way and found the next street, where you couldn’t see the museum. It was the exact same thing. I think they lost an hour.
