A good movie with some "matter of fact" performances that are, perhaps, too real to be considered movie acting (notice how over-the-top actors always get the accolades? -- "whooooo, whaaaaa" for example).However, this is a movie where I would have liked to have seen a digital effect put in...in particular, there are two scenes where the microphone dips VERY far into the frame -- VERY far. In this age of digital gimmickry could they not send those few frames for a "touch-up" so that it does not detract from the movie? This movie is very involving and realistic and those errors suddenly drove the point home -- oh yeah, I'm watching a movie!

I've only seen the movie once -- in a theater.I was so taken in by it -- captivated, let's say -- I never even noticed the microphone. Kinda like the way I end up ignoring the clicks and pops on an old vinyl record if it's Billie Holliday doing the music.
On my list to see again, definitely. I guess I'll be looking for that damn microphone this time, thanks to you! ;-)
The microphone that is.

Ok....PERHAPS they fixed it up on later cuts. But the portion I remember the most is when the Matthew Broderick character is having an across-the-table discussion with Amy Ryan. This is in his office I believe.Doug
I'm wondering if the projectionist in your theater knew this and framed it with this in mind. I've seen this happen many times, even in VERY big-budget movies (The Insider for example). But in this movie the microphone dropped in well over a foot into the screen. You could see the whole microphone and the boom attachment!!!Doug
