 In the opening scene where Sarah slips from Gabes hand had to be  done several times because Sarahs glove would not slip off as  desired. In order to get it to slide off, director  Renny Harlin (qv) had her wear a glove that was a couple of sizes  too big and filled the glove with Vaseline and even then  Sylvester Stallone (qv)s grip was too tight and the glove almost  stayed on.
