I haven't seen the film in donkeys, but I think the chalk outline wasn't real, it was only in Prince's imagination as he freaked-out. As if he was imagining what could have been? Or might still be? Or is it him in the future? Who knows?

I can't go and check, because the tape snapped on my only copy. It broke right at the Lake Minnetonka scene? hmmm

What they actually overdubbed is "That half and half babe.."

The Lake Minnetonka scene...when she emerges from the lake, of course her hair is wet...but after she jumps back on the bike and they zoom off, you can see that her hair is dry.

Here's a good one. At the beginning of the movie while Prince plays "Let's Go Crazy", there are short scenes of Morris and scenes of Apollonia edited in2 this perfomance. The disputed scene is the 1 with Morris at home looking at his gold jacket in the mirror 2 wear that night. But, look who else is in the mirror that moves out of view!
(Might be better 2 view on dvd rather than a dark video.)

Or the 1 with Prince & Apollonia at the shopping center - the scene where he takes her ankle braclet. While Apollonia is following Prince around the corner there is a flash of light like a camera flash. Some1 taking pictures?

Yep I'm sure some fans are across the road watching the filming and snapping - they have such a tight budget they leave it in!!!

Also, they never saw App in the first place!

+Prince's motorcycle tyre changes from a street tyre to an off-road tyre when he is near the river.
