>In terms of the art, that hasn't changed. That really hasn't changed. You can judge lighting now with quite a bit of accuracy from what you see on a monitor. That's actually what you're going to get, what you're seeing. In the old days you were really dependent on the eyes of your camera man, completely, for the lighting, because he was the only one looking through the lens when you were shooting, and you wouldn't see those images until the next day or the next week depending on where your lab was. It's just brought it much more close to writing a novel in a weird way, in that what you're writing, what you're shooting is what you're getting. For me, that's just fantastic. I couldn't wait for film to disappear, frankly. And it's dead, believe me. It's gone. There are holdouts, but right now in Toronto and in most major cities you can't even get your film developed anymore, you have to send it to LA. So that makes it completely not viable.
