English term or phrase: runaway success
A den fit for a washed up cop with nothing to lose, a reclusive kinky couple or... a murderer. Great for rehearsing horror roles.

A good all-purpose set for basic movie scenes. Ideal for rehearsing comedy roles.

*Will help make your scenes a runaway success*. Excellent for romantic roles rehearsals.

A quiet, secluded, respectful neighborhood. But for how long? Great for rehearsing action roles.

Wederom de sets en decors waar een film opgenomen kan worden. Het "runaway success" stukje slaat op een postkoets waar een scène opgenomen kan worden. Ik zie het verband niet zo helaas.....
