Interesting facts
Cinematographer Edward Lachman recreated the 1950s 'look' for the film by employing incandescent lighting, the same lighting techniques and identical types of lens filters that would have been used on melodramas of the 1950s.
The Tupperware container Cathy brings to Frank's office has a colour and design dating from after 1962.
Cathy Whitaker
That was the day I stopped believing in the wild ardor of things. Perhaps in love, as well. That kind of love. The love in books and films. The love that tells us to abandon our lives and plans, all for one brief touch of Venus. So often we fail at that kind of love. The world just seems too fragile a place for it. And of every other kind, life remains full. Perhaps it's just we who are too fragile.
