Good to see Ed Lachman shooting film again after his digital camera zone system stuff for monitors etc. I thought JACKIE was great and then SPENCER was great so Im hoping this one's great too. Looks to me like she will be mesmerising. On in select theatres Nov 27th ad Netflix Dec 11th in USA

Here's a behind the scenes on Kodak website

"For the later period in the film, depicting scenes in Callas' life during the 1960s and '70s, Lachman employed an ARRICAM ST 3-perf 35mm camera, fitted primarily with his own set of Ultra Baltar lenses, switching to Canon K35 primes for evening scenes when needing an extra stop, and exposing on KODAK VISION3 35mm 50D Color Negative Film 5203, 250D 5207 and 500T 5219 filmstocks. 

To depict the documentary film crew investigating Maria's life, the DP used his own vintage Aaton LTR and ARRI 416 cameras using a 10.4-52mm Cooke S16 zoom, filming with KODAK VISION3 16mm 250D 7207 and 500T 7219. Classic Pro and KODAK Super 8mm cameras, plus Cooke, Schneider and Angénieux zoom lenses were used for the home movie footage and clips of private moments with the people Callas was closest to, using KODAK VISION3 Super 8mm 50D Color Negative Film 7203 and 500T/7219. 

The scenes depicting Maria's past – such as her encounters with Onassis and her youth in wartime Greece – were shot on KODAK DOUBLE-X 5222 B&W 35mm negative using the Ultra Baltars."

Film adds art to the movie experience. A movie is half image and half sound. If filmmakers get art into their images (literally half of the equation) they will have a better chance of success with their movies.

Film has heart, soul, and humanity. Film is artisanal. It's got a hand-made vibe to it.

Good taste and artistic wisdom is slowly coming back. I can start going to the cinema again. There's actually something new to look forward to seeing on the screen again.
