BURRATOR SUNSET
The sun sinks low over Sheeps Tor on a winter's
afternoon. The picture was taken from the slopes of Down Tor
looking towards Burrator Reservoir, which gleams in the setting
sun. A very similar shot to this can be seen in the film 'Revolution'
starring Al Pacino, part of which was filmed at Burrator Reservoir.
The movie was a critical and box office failure, helping to account
for the demise of Goldcrest Films (which had previously made
'Chariots Of Fire'). The film company's fate was sealed from
the moment it employed Drake H3's IAT as an extra for the Battle
Of Yorktown sequence. See the hash mag for Run No.116 for further details.
