Canasta is a card game. You play with a partner.

@JudyEv Oh ok. It is the first time I heard of it. Then again I am not much of a card player.

I would imagine running a car into a tree would leave me very sore.

Maybe you missed the word 'pretended'. Our friend's car wasn't damaged at all.

It's look pretty realistic, doesn't it? She left it with us while she was away and we had fun putting it in compromising situations then taking photos.

@JudyEv Given the actors, it's not surprising about both the language and the humor. It looks like it isn't streaming anywhere here currently, although it's rentable.

I am always intrigued how they set these up so that no-one gets hurt. They must total a few cars when they do these chases.

@FayeHazel In The Money Pit they had this scene where something happened and all the scaffolding gradually fell down dumping people in paint, cement, etc. It seemed to go on for ages. How they coordinated it all I have no idea but it was very funny.

@JudyEv Indeed, the choreography of scenes like car chases and fights are quite intriguing. What makes it easier is that they only shoot a few seconds at a time and use editing to up the tension
