CLOVERFIELD - And so it begins…
Finally, what we have all been (im)patiently waiting on - PRESS interviews about CLOVERFIELD!!
Sorry, couldn’t resist. It’s one month and one day from being released, so now seems to be the official “floodgate” mark.
/Film posted THIS BREAKDOWN of interview points with CLOVERFIELD director Matt Reeves.
My favorite part has to do with the “It’s a lion!” misnomer:
At the last minute, when we were shooting the trailer, we wanted people to know - ’cause we hadn’t created the monster yet - that it was a giant monster movie, we wanted a tease of that. I jumped to the microphone and said the line, “I saw it! It’s alive! It’s huge!” And one of the most amusing things is I had come home and someone on the web had taken that section and started to do an analysis on it and thought I said, “It was a lion.” The way I speak was too fast sometimes and they couldn’t make it out.
C’mon…I KNOW you are laughing your ass off right now.
