Man Building a Replica Town

(Original Caption) Without a doubt, the strangest "town" in all of Italy, this is the "special effects" department for the famed movie studio at Cinecitta in Rome. It is from the hodge-podge of toy scale buildings, ships, vehicles, monuments, weapons, and what-have-you (from every time period), that the Italian movie producers get backgrounds and "props" for their different films. Past and present mingle easily in this fantasy of miniature replicas.
