Crimson Peak

I finally got a chance to see it.
Unfortunately much like a few other films i'm not really able to discuss it in an unbiased fashion...

So i'll just say this.
If you like Guillermo Del Toro you will mostly likely enjoy this film.
however if you can't stand surprisingly graphic violence... may not be your cup of tea.

ok now onto what i am comfortable talking about.

1. The sets were the most amazing sets i have ever seen.
That three floor mansion isn't three floors on ground level, it's actually a 3 floor mansion. it's the biggest set i've ever walked through and every hallway and every detail had something unique and eye catching. Once someone wanted to show me to take the outside stairs to get from the attic portion to the ground cause the view was pretty impressive however my fear of hights locked my legs and i ended up walking back down through the set.
and yeah certain bits aren't connected but for the most part a stunning incredible one of a kind set.

2. The costumes are so lovely.
Due to where i work i rarely get to see the wardrobe/costume department up close but on this one i got to and i can't even begin to describe how beautiful every since article was.
all the shoes all the dresses, i think it may even be nominated for an oscar tomorrow and i will not be surprised at all if it wins.

3. I hate my shoulder.
most things i work on for a set time and then when i'm not needed i get my 'pink slip' (which they can't even put on pink paper so wheres the fun in that?) and i go on my way to the next thing.
I was really looking forward to this show... my first Non sci-fi show... it was exciting.
and then my shoulder gives out and i have to leave the show early.
I was heart broken, the people i was working with where so incredibly kind and it killed me to walk away even though i knew if i pushed it any further the recovery time would have been even longer then it already was.

4. No credit for me.
I wasn't expecting one, i wasn't there nearly as long as i was on some other films, however a family member who had gone many films without a credit got one on this so i was very happy for them... it may just be your name on a screen but it's a nice Thank you to see it there.
Maybe one day i'll get to see my name up there too.
maybe on the one i finished not too long ago...
