 The films winter light effect was discovered incidentally days  before production. With the silk rigged to prevent rain water from  damaging the set, the rigging crew attempted to emulate daylight  during night. Gaffer John Buckley (III) (qv) threw 3/4 lights from  top to bottom of the set through the silk. Thus was the result and  it was what Dion Beebe (qv) got which he went on to win Best  Cinematographer of 2005.
