It's a sequence like that battle sequence, for instance, has to be planned months in advance because it's a puzzle. Different parts have been shot in different places and you have to create a piece of highway sequence With all these cars, it has to be very, very well planned according to its sun positions. And so it's storyboarded. And of course, working with someone like...

Roger Dickens will have a strong input. That's what I love. It's like a collaboration. I mean, it's like we will find together the right angle according to the board that I did, but I'm always open if someone has a better idea on set that will make the shot even stronger.

The thing I love working with Roger is that we both are, when we are looking for a shot, looking for the angle, not multiple angles, But one, we used to work with one camera and just making sure that that's something, that search for the best angle possible is something that would...

That's crazy. No, no. I will say it's because I'm monomaniac and it's something that Roger has. We try once to put a second camera on one and it was a disaster. I mean, you feel it. You know it's not right. It's like there's one place to put the camera and the rest is... We are both On a movie like Doom, sometimes there was additional cameras.

Yeah. Actually, my first feature film was some kind of a rom-com. Was it? Yeah, it's not a good one, but it was. She did lose her life at the end. Actually, he dies. Wow. No, no, no, no, no. Hopeless. But it is one of the reasons when I did Sicario, I knew Arrival was coming after. And I did Sicario knowing that I would make a movie with more light.
