Dick Powell's Zane Grey Theater


Recommended Posts

Watching an episode with Jack Elam playing his usual bad guy role.  He was shooting Indians with a '92 through a window.  The end of the barrel was out of sight because it was sticking out the window but, each time he fired it, there was recoil and a bang.  He fired about 6 shots in succession and each time he levered the '92, no empty shell ejected.

So, I figured that he must of slightly jerked the '92 to simulate recoil and a gunshot sound effect was added.  No flash or smoke was seen from the end of the barrel as it was outside of the window.  It it wasn't for no empty shells ejecting it looked very realistic.

Hollywood, masters of illusion.
