How did you like the cinematography?


I liked most of it, especially the grainy texture and softness.

And the 1:1.66 aspect ratio was nice.

The use of natural light at dusk/dawn was great.

Hand-held was effective & dynamic.

But some shots of Natalie seemed to be out of focus?
At least the eyes of the actors were not in focus in some shots.
(It's difficult to pull focus on a 16mm camera, I think?)

And I'm not sure if the choice of 16mm always helped...

A 35mm image would have looked more splendid in some flashback
scenes, I think. It would have been better for remembering the
great 'Camelot' days.

All in all it looked distinctive and interesting.
