The Perineum Falcon

Saw this before Superman.
I remember wondering if they're going to do a 90+ minute movie of Christ's intensely violent birth. :shock:
We often went to the cinema, the screen would light up and we would tremble, but also, increasingly often, Madeleine and I were disappointed. The images had dated, they jittered, and Marilyn Monroe had gotten terribly old. We were sad, this wasn't the film we had dreamed of, this wasn't the total film that we all carried around inside us, this film that we would have wanted to make, or, more secretly, no doubt, that we would have wanted to live.

Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.
