In a Valley of Violence: Filmed on Celluloid
Kodak goes behind the scenes for the movie, A Valley of Violence. The film is shot in 35mm Kodak 250D daylight film indoors and outside during the daytime. The film was selected to capture the shadow details in the buildings and the actors' expressions under the brims of their hats in the hard, noon-day sunlight of New Mexico. The single night shot was done with Kodak 500T. The goal of using 35mm film was to create a gritty, Western-style look with the texture of film grain. The panaromas of the desert were best captured with the latitude of film and the actors and crew were on the top of their game to capture the scenes right. One of the stars of the motion picture, John Travolta, fist-bumped the director/writer, Ti West, on learning that silver halide film was being used to make the movie.
