For anyone wondering, that's Sarah Connors dream from Terminator 2 right before the city gets nuked.
The fact that you have to explain this is making me feel very god damned old right now.
T2 is 34 years old, I remember reading about it in a paper magazine, when James Cameron said that the molten T1000 should say "Get out" to the helicopter pilot and how the CGI artists were stumped on how to make it happen.
There's something like 2-5 minutes of CGI in T2 and that was unheard of back in 1991.
The actress who played Sarah Conner had a twin in real life, and they use her as a double in some scenes.
Notably one (that I think was cut) has her operating on Arnold's head, and you can see her doing it in the mirror. What they actually did was make a super detailed replica of his head and used her twin sister to mirror her movements. There are videos and stuff out there about it, it's pretty fucking cool.
One of the other notable scenes with her sister was in the steel factory, when the T1000 was mimicking Sarah. The T1000 was actually played by Linda Hamilton and it was her sister with the shotgun.
