...realistic in closeups. Ever the perfectionist, however, Coppola wanted not only blood but bullet holes. Smith covered the actor's real skin with a false latex skin, putting both blood and tiny explosive discs in the space between. On cue the discs were detonated by means of copper wires, creating an authentic-looking bullet hole through which blood would pour...

Growth has been declining. It was 4.7% last year, and it will trail off to 4% this year.
