Filming began in November 1997.[1] On the first day of principal photography, Anderson delivered his directions to Murray in a whisper so that he would not be embarrassed if the actor shot him down. However, the actor publicly deferred to Anderson, hauled equipment, and when Disney denied the director a $25,000 shot of Max and Mr. Blume riding in a helicopter, Murray gave Anderson a blank check to cover the cost.
