'Elephant' Shot on Film, Not DV

RECEIVED Tue., Dec. 2, 2003

Hello,
   I just wanted to drop a quick line about the Elephant review. After reading it I went to see the movie. The reviewer writes "shot on digital video." This was a factor in me seeing the film. After watching the movie I was blown away by how much it looked liked film and was curious about how they made the DV look so good. After not much research at all, I went to the official Web site for the film; it was shot on 35 mm film.
   So just thought you may want to take the DV part out of the review.
   The Web site for Elephant is www.elephantmovie.com/production/6photo.html.
Thanks for your time,
Justin Johnson
