It's no secret that the overwhelming majority of movies are shot out-of-sequence for the sake of scheduling, cost and general practicality, though in a rare move, all of The Mask's scenes set in the bank that didn't involve CGI elements were filmed in a single day.

Better still, these scenes were also shot mostly in sequential order, which surely must've been music to the ears of the cast. Given that there are quite a few prolonged scenes set in the bank, that's an impressive hustle on the part of the cast and crew.
