Florin Şumălan thank you so much for sharing this. In the history of cinema, I love the likes of Tarkovsky and Kieslowski, for their poetic style of filmmaking, but I think we can see how exacting Tarkovsky’s method could be.
And of course, Nykvist was a master. I loved what he said about not being technical all the time, but to use intuition, otherwise all your films look alike!
“Light is the philosophy of the cinematographic art.” Love that.

Geoff Hall , Nathan Woodward , you're welcome. I thought it was interesting to see a glimpse of how they worked together. I don't know why I thought that they didn't shoot in a studio. I thought they filmed the interiors too in a location, a real house and mostly natural lighting.

Florin Şumălan me too, Florin. I had forgotten that some of the interiors were studio shots, but watching this, it all makes sense.
