Agile, athletic, fluid.. You marvel of course at the building climb / stunts but relish also the smaller touches - the way he and Bill Strother hang themselves under coats so the landlady won't find them, the way he scuttles along the floor behind a packing case, or comes to life as a shop window dummy.
Iris dissolves I guess were managed in-camera but there's some neat fading in and out which may be post processed. Despite safety platforms and things there's no way you can convince me that was a safe stunt, or rather, series of stunts, for actor or crew. It's more thrilling than the Tom Cruise Dubai stuff.
