Featured Animal Action
A woman and a girl sit on a bench and pet a cat lying on the pavement nearby. A butterfly sits on the woman's shoulder briefly and then flies away. Both the cat and the butterfly were put in place by trainers who stood offscreen to retrieve them when filming was over.
Both the eagle seen in one brief scene and the creature called "the scrunt" are computer generated.
