Universal Pictures' World War I movie goes wide this weekend after earning two Globes: best drama and director, for Sam Mendes.
A film set in World War I often focuses on the horrors and futility of war. World War II movies tend to be stories of victory.The filmmakers used innovative techniques to make the movie look as if it were filmed in a single, unbroken take. It was shot by Roger Deakins, who won the cinematography Oscar for “Blade Runner 2049" two years ago and is expected to be nominated this year.
Mendes, onstage accepting the best picture Globe, acknowledged the challenges inherent in getting his ambitious movie seen. It remains to be seen if “1917" can reach that level of business. But “1917" has started its run with strong sales in limited release, generating about $2.3 million from 11 theaters since Christmas.Also hitting nationwide theaters this weekend is “Just Mercy,” the book adaptation starring Michael B. Jordan as civil rights attorney Bryan Stevenson. The Warner Bros. Oscar hopeful is expected to open with less than $10 million, according to analysts.
