Largely lost amid the talk of Errol Morris' Standard Operating Procedure : The production value is freakin' amazing. With a score by Danny Elfman and cinematography by Robert Richardson, the film - especially the re-enactments - reminds us that a documentary can look and sound every bit as good as a major Hollywood production. "Documentary is interesting because you can re-invent it," Morris told me when he came to Dallas. "You can create something that is really different. Thin Blue Line to me was really different than anything that had been made before. I'm proud of it. Just because it had style and it's been constructed and thought out doesn't mean it didn't have facts underlying it, or an investigation underlying it. The same is true of this movie. I should use really bad cinematographers to make it more truthful? It is still a movie." |
