Mortal Engines [DVD]

Have not yet watched the movie

I only bought this to check out Naomi Campbell's superb work as design coordinator and as a colour theming advisor. What gave the old Metrocolour and Panavision films was the iron grip the cinematographers and set designers had over how colour is used in moving pictures: if you had mentioned that something known as "LUTs" would ever be developed, they would have laughed in your face 50 years ago in contempt. I did not like the sneering featured extra bonus footage either. From the tone of it you can easily understand why NZ does not get more work in cinema production. Perhaps the producers feared they would be unfriended on Facebook if they did not virtue-signal every three minutes. I still do not understand the film either. The punchline to the film is this after you have sat through it: Hester Shaw sets out to kill both her biological father and her spiritual father, the latter having saved her life. Why? Just why? Were there no other options open?
