Following yesterday’s At Eternity’s Gate event, Tatyana and I attended a screening of Marielle Heller‘s Can You Ever Forgive Me? at the London hotel. It was my fourth viewing, and the best-sounding presentation of all — I could hear each and every vowel and syllable as if the actors were standing right next to me. The q & a included Heller, presumed Best Actress nominee Melissa McCarthy, presumed Best Supporting Actor nominee Richard E. Grant, co-screenwriter Jeff Whitty, producers Anne Carey and Amy Nauiokas. Heller said they used a newfangled Panavision DXL camera, a relatively new device with a super-sharp 8K resolution. And then they de-tuned the lenses to make the image less perfect. Collider‘s Scott Mantz hosted the discussion.
