Anyone else not a fan of the editing?
At first I thought it was the writing. Maybe the scenes weren't going on long enough. But then I noticed that it seemed like scenes abruptly ended. Something about the editing was off.
shareThe film has a disorientingly giddy quality - the camera’s always moving and the story is too, you never know when you’ll be suddenly ejected from one scene and burst into the next.
What unhinges me the most is the dubbing - there’s something surreal about an entire film where the vocals are artificially detached from the actors.
To me, the dubbing seemed intentional.
shareHow so?
shareIn the way Mulholland Dr. did it. I got the impression that they were attempting some dream-like feeling from the movie.
It was particularly apparent in outdoor scenes so it will have been because they couldn’t control environmental sounds.
shareYeah. I only noticed dubbing in outside scenes. I thought the indoor stuffed seemed filmed on location, no other reason for it sounding the way it did, with echos and room noises.
