The Vancouver Public Library is playing a hospital again today for TNT pilot Proof. The scene: Dr. Carolyn Tyler (Jennifer Beals) runs down Robson Street on the south sidewalk and then crosses over (stunt double) to run on the north sidewalk by Bay Vista Medical Center staff and a bus stop with a Loft billboard as a flashing prop Bay Vista ambulance drives by.

Produced by Kyra Sedgewick (who is in town to oversee filming of the pilot), Proof is a supernatural medical drama about a doctor who’s asked to investigate cases of reincarnation and hauntings for proof. Despite her own recent bereavement she remains Scully-skeptical and reliant on hard science when it comes to answering the question — is there something beyond death?
Each photograph is a different take and I lost count how many times she did it.
Imagine this camera cart chasing you down Robson Street.
