Thanks
Scott Charles.
Cleaning Up is on Youtube. I sped through it
(I'm not a big fan SLAPSTICK) and didn't see the sky scraping scene.
• Video Link
This particular copy of the film is silent with Italian subtitles.
As I said earlier...I didn't see the elusive skyscraper scene but I
did see a few mystery locations.
Street corner
#1
Same street corner (
#1), with street sign.
Street location
#2.
I'm intrigued by the building on the left. (house-like...with an awning)
Street scene
#3. Impressive corner building.
This almost looks like a fake building.
Same street scene (
#3), with a HUGE clue in the distance. (the building above..is on the right, below)
But I'm not 100% sure which storage building that is in the distance.
