OUGD601 / COP3 / Reading / Side By Side - Greta Gerwig

https://www.nowness.com/story/side-by-side-greta-gerwig

Greta Gerwig and Keanu Reeves from 'Side by Side'

'the experiential quality of actually watching a movie or reading a book or listening to an album will become the thing that is actually rare ...the ability to name drop things actually has no value.']

'I do have a distaste of things that pretend to be something else.'

'I have a natural inclination to think "yes but it's not a polaroid" so I don't like it as much but I don't know why I have an affinity to feeling like it needs to be the thing that it is.

Keanu - "A kind of authentic connection..."

"and i think that there's something just as authentic about digital... but i think it should be honest about the fact that it's digital!"

"We shot it digitally on a Canon 5D... and we're going to process it so that it looks like Woody Allen's 'Manhattan'."

"It's amazing, it has that like the way those blacks are really deep"

"But... it's faked! We didn't shoot it on 35mm black and white but we will be able to create the effect of it... which I kind of feel uncomfortable with but also kind of looks great..."
