Universal/Focus Features

Ngl which studios do what is never something that sinks in much for me

lower budget allows for more risks, esp such a film which is very unconventional already with its B&W on film, aspect ratio n language. they knew what they were getting

90m (30m over budget too) vs 11m for lighthouse

regency was involved in lighthouse but they’re the main production company for northman

Not too worried about it retaining his signature depth and craft

i dont doubt eggers

You see VVitch in de cinema?

seen both the vvitch and lighthouse in the cinema, latter two times

film festival premiere screening front row with critics jotting down s***

i wasnt kino baptized when i saw the vvitch in the cinema though

Sounds distracting nice tho

It was amazing

the fog horn helped da immersion and shutting off from the distractions

it was also a triple feature thingy, most were there for lighthouse

We brought our loud obnoxious casual friend and the moment the film was over she literally screeched "THAT WAS THE WORST MOVIE IVE EVER SEEN" the rest of us had a blast and she couldn't understand why we were laughing so hard

Ngl that sounds annoying as f*** lmaooooo

I did say obnoxious :elon:

she got filtered

Eggers' 3rd classic coming so so soon

We almost had to live with Harry Styles in the new Nosferatu lmao, thank God he dropped out

“So much of moviemaking is people trying to sell you something,” Hawke said. “I’ve spent my life wondering, Will I ever get to be on a set that feels like ‘Apocalypse Now’? You know, like, somebody’s trying. They have the balls, and the hubris and the arrogance to say, ‘I want to make a masterpiece. I’m going to write a movie about Vikings with an Icelandic poet. And shoot it in a way that a film has never been choreographed before.’ So, for me, just seeing somebody take a swing like that, you know, it’s like a jump off a high dive.”
