THE MASTER em 70mm

Realizou-se ontem à noite, no Music Box Theatre em Chicago, a primeira de uma série limitada de projecções em 70mm do novo filme de Paul Thomas Anderson, THE MASTER.

Entre as várias reacções, possíveis de serem recolhidas na rede social Twitter por quem compareceu àquela sessão especial, rapidamente nos apercebemos que se trata de um filme visualmente soberbo. Sobretudo, por recorrer ao 70mm, o formato predilecto de Paul Thomas Anderson...:

Mike Eisenberg: "THE MASTER in 70mm was so gorgeous my eyes nearly exploded."

Mark Colomb: "#themaster was beautiful. Amazing to look at."

Xan Aranda: "Never realize how hungry your eyes are til you see something beauuuutifully shot & projected on film."

Mark Schoeck: "'The Master' was beautiful. What a wonderful experience in 70mm."

Phillip Jackson: "70mm looked amazing such detail yet softness. Felt like IMAX but small screen."

Scott Tobias: "See 'The Master' in 70mm and then talk about digital as 'progress.' Yeah, didn't think so."

Sean Dove: "I can't even express to you how amazing the 70mm picture was in 'The Master.'"

Brian Tallerico: "#TheMaster70mm should make all those who led the charge for digital filmmaking weep in shame."

Lawrence Benedetto: "I'm not at a level capable of reviewing what I just saw, but I know it was absolutely gorgeous in 70mm."

Chris Zois: "Going to need some time to mull over 'The Master.' I will say 70mm is gorgeous."

Ignatiy Vishnevetsky: "You really need 70mm to appreciate all the trouser textures & high waists."

E a lista de elogios, não só à qualidade intrínseca do filme, mas como ao facto de ser rodado e projectado em película de grande formato, é interminável...
