Quotes

[on shooting most of First Man (2018) on 16mm] We shot the spacecrafts on 35mm for the camera test, which we thought we were going to do, then we felt it looked too good. It looked too much like a movie. It didn't feel as authentic and real as the inspiration, which was [NASA's] actual footage that we'd screened. To be authentic '60s, to be emotionally connected as well, the grain and 16mm softness is something we felt was more human and connected with them, while the moon was so far away. [2018]
