French hours
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
French hours is a term used in the film industry, when there is no break for lunch. Instead food is passed around all day long and the crew works continuously. The lack of a lunch break means that crew members and the cast has to steal moments to eat. Joel Schumacher employed French Hours in filming Phone Booth, a film completed in just ten days.[1]
