A24's THE DEATH OF ROBIN HOOD with director Michael Sarnoski
from Top Comment · host Patrick Tomasso
Michael Sarnoski (Pig, A Quiet Place: Day One) breaks down how he and DP Pat Scola made The Death of Robin Hood for A24. Shot on 35mm Kodak film in Northern Ireland through brutal weather, a fully practical burning hut built to survive 15-minute takes, and a deliberate aspect ratio shift that marks the story's turn. We get into the brutal/beautiful balance at the heart of the film, how rigid the shot list actually is on set, and why "natural light" is more precise and deliberate than it looks.
