California Cooler shoot

"Teach a man to fish ...." When I was in Vancouver, I helped Chuck Phillips hook up a new scanner to his computer. He's now having a blast putting it to use, scanning a lot of the C/D memorabilia he owns.
this picture of the shirtless director mark coppos and lee clow was taken 20 years ago @ the california cooler shoot (one of lee's favourite campaigns). it was february. the temperature at topanga beach had fallen to the low-40's. all the actors in swim suits and bikini's, pretending it was mid-summer, were freezing on their takes. so clow and mark took off their shirts as an empathetic act of camaraderie which got a rousing cheer from the cast. notice all the other folks huddled in parkas. among them is producer francesca cohn and a very good account guy whose name escapes me (the bundled bearded guy on the right).
