Director Jan de Bont Explains How ‘Twister’ Changed the Film World Close Is there something that you feel would have been very different in the film, if you had been able to use the technology of today? You made Twister in between making Speed and Speed 2. What did you learn from your experience making Speed?
DE BONT: No, absolutely not. I did not know that, of course. I only thought it was a really great idea when I saw a picture of a live cow in a tree. I didn’t really believe it was real. I thought it was a commercial shoot for a milk company. But then, they said it was real and that there are live animals that end up in trees. Even one time, there was a baby in a tree that survived.
