Filming a scene with Civil War reenactors is always hard because they’re sticklers for reality. “We wouldn’t stand like that.” “We wouldn’t run; we’d march.” “I should say that line, not him. I’m a lieutenant.” The reenactors were driving me crazy with their regulations and negativity and, um, fellas, just in case you didn’t know… Wild Wild West is a movie with a made-up story that has an eighty-foot mechanical spider in it. Relax.
