lost 'world'

Things that make me admire The New World all the more: it was shot on 65mm; filmed almost entirely in available light; and cut around a completed score rather than scored upon completion. Rapturous, haunting filmmaking—the kind of movie that Legends of the Fall wanted to be. It's easily the best release of 2005 and hardly anyone got to see it. Sad. (Grade A, incidentally; I don't mention DVDs in the sidebar.)
