00:00I read the Richard McGuire graphic novel here and I was immediately inspired by it and I said,
00:06this is a beautiful graphic novel but this could be a really compelling movie.
00:10And I saw immediately what the style was going to be.
00:14It was to be true to the novel, this one view, fixed view of the universe
00:19and time and lives pass through it.
00:22We're shooting that in real time.
00:23So we were doing each individual scene and having to master that
00:27and sometimes it was mastered in five takes and sometimes it took 42 takes.
00:32I've never done theater, you have.
00:34I did not view it as theater.
00:35I actually viewed it as the type of films that I grew up in with number one, deep focus.
00:41Stuff in the background is just as sharp as stuff in the foreground.
00:44And there were times we talked about it at great length, like okay,
00:46we got to figure out a way where this line, I can see your face and then, you know.
00:51It was just choreography.
00:53Well, that's almost like making a movie.
00:55That's what we were doing.
00:56We were making a movie.
00:57Yeah.
