After
a very successfully Venice Film Festival, Alfonso Cuarón’s Gravity received yet
another round of appraises from director James Cameron, who not only called
Gravity one of “the best space film ever
done” but also Sandra Bullock’s performance.
Here
is what Cameron had to say about the movie:
“I was stunned, absolutely floored. I think it’s the best space photography ever
done, I think it’s the best space film ever done, and it’s the movie I’ve been
hungry to see for an awful long time … What is interesting is the human
dimension. Alfonso and Sandra working together to create an absolutely seamless
portrayal of a woman fighting for her life in zero gravity.”
And
Bullock’s performance:
“She’s
the one that had to take on this unbelievable challenge to perform it. (It was)
probably no less demanding than a Cirque du Soleil performer, from what I can
see … There’s an art to that, to creating moments that seem spontaneous but are
very highly rehearsed and choreographed. Not too many people can do it. … I
think it’s really important for people in Hollywood to understand what was
accomplished here.”
And
finally the technical aspects of the film:
“I
read the script, and I thought it was tremendously challenging to shoot with a
high degree of veracity to get the real look of zero gravity … I’m sure Alfonso
had a real uphill battle with the studio, with everyone involved, to get it the
way it needed to look. But he knew in his mind how it needed to look, and he
went after it.”
