Did anyone notice that one of the lenses used throughout the film had a flare in the lower left? does anyone know what causes this type of flare?also: there was an exterior shot at princeton with jennifer connelly (sp?) and adam goldberg. she had her stroller and admits to feeling guilty about wanting to run away. she was in sharp focus and the colors were especially vibrant. the background had an odd soft focus to it. was this just a long lens with a filter or was there some special trick to achieve that effect? (the reverse on goldberg wasn't the same; he was actually a bit out of focus and the background wasn't as interesting.) anybody?
overall a pretty good film. well-acted. worth seeing.
Follow Ups:
I usually notice cinematography and continuity errors. I didn't notice the lense flare.As for the depth of field things you note. Today, most everything is digitally edited and even in the oddest circumstances digitally altered (it's not just the big special effects films that use digital effects).
It could well be a by-product of the lense, or, it could have been shot with large depth of field (everything back is in focus), but then they decided shallow depth would be better and digitally altered it that way. I don't know at all, but this is just speculation on what of the many things could be done to create odd effects like you saw.
