The director took the stage at New York Comic Con to share his personal inspiration behind the film, which takes place over two hours in real time.

The New York Comic Con panel Thursday afternoon discussing Sam Mendes’ upcoming First World War dramamanaged to be both respectful to the soldiers who had fought in the conflict and appropriately exciting for those curious about the unusual structure of the feature, raising anticipation for what may be the most unique movie of the year.

“I don’t think he told me that,” Deakins said. “I think I got the script and it was on the front page: ‘This is conceived as one continuous shot.’ And I went, ‘?” He went on to admit, “When I first read it, I thought, is it a gimmick? But it’s not, it’s integral to the experience.” “I remember the first call I had with Sam, and he left it to the very last bit. ‘Oh, it’s all one continuous shot.’ And I thought I played it cool, but I didn’t, I screamed,” she said, laughing, before admitting that the idea presented unique problems in terms of writing, not least of which attempting to construct a satisfying narrative that takes place in real time across two hours.
