How to make a movie with one camera?
This movie is so hard to watch, I hated it! I plan not to even say why. The hype is beyond me!
shareWhat do you mean by "How to make a movie with one camera?" Elaborate.
Oh please, elaborate.

I agree that technically it's terrible and can look like homemade video with the lighting and shaky camera.
But in terms of the plot, story and performances its a very good film.
It managed to give us message the film wanted to give.
Which is how bad and dangerous bulling is, many take it as a joke or films like mean girls, heathers and cruel intentions romanticizes the bullies by making them sexy, dressing great clothiers and giving cool one liners to quote sends the wrong message to young girls.
But this film had the advantage of making everyone equally average in the looks department and the bulling started for a "good reason" i put this way because bulling can't never be justified but this film doesn't start as a cliche.
So this film done by someone like Steven Spielberg would be a masterpiece.
I'd cast Rooney Mara, Dakota Fanning, Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield the main kid from war horse.
The idea is to have stars who look like normal teenagers and not supermodels in school to send the same message but this the whole cinematography would be improved and would look professionally made documentary even tough it's a film.
It would be the Schindler's list for teenagers in school.
Shaky camera and bad lighting? Did we watch the same movie?
share"But in terms of the plot, story and performances its a very good film. "
Don't agree, script and performance are worst than the technical issues.
"So this film done by someone like Steven Spielberg would be a masterpiece. "
You might be right. In hands of Todd Solondz or David Fincher it would be a great movie.
Not sure if serious about the Spielberg thing..
And I thought the cinematography of this movie was superb. Lighting is excellent for instance. People nowadays tend to call something 'a home movie' very often if it doesn't contain fast paced editing and flashy color filters.
This film was technically excellent. I can't comprehend remarks like yours to the contrary. I find the idea of this film being made by Spielberg and with the actors you list nauseating in the extreme.
It would be the Schindler's list for teenagers in school.You're mad.
I give my respect to those who have earned it; to everyone else, I'm civil.share
I agree, the movie is difficult to watch. But, in the end, it is a good movie with very good performances and plot.
Why the hype? It won an award at Cannes. If the movie hadn't won anything there would be no media attention towards it. Bullying isn't new nor will stop happening because of this movie.
The Cannes award helped, yet I think the subject itself was striking enough to get attention by the public, and well, it had also a considerable promotion in Mexico.
shareMost scenes and actually most movies are shot with just one camera. Only guys like Ridley Scott and David Fincher are known for their plus one camera set-ups.
shareagree. Its a lazy direction, terrible amateur acting and a stupid screenpla thta makes no sense.

I suspect you mean static camera setup?
It's meant to create a voyeuristic feel (as in like you're there). Look up a director named Yasujirô Ozu.
