True, I was kind of focussing on the actual narrative, but obviously I didnt know about how big it was back then and that they were trying different methods on doing things.
I should actually be looking at stuff like that now, Im a Film Student now so i need to look at all aspects of films such as cinematograpghy, sound and lighting. But as i saw it years ago, I didnt know to look out for that. Talking about cinematograpghy, I got a B talking about the use of cinamatograpghy in the film "Leon".... ohh yeah
