mood of the daylight during the
winter reinforces the psychology of
isolation in the story.
"I used a warmer, tainted

Lachman, who operated on a few sequences, has high praise for the
show's entire crew - crediting Chris Haarhoff, as "an incredible Steadicam
operator who did wonderful work that didn't look like it was Steadicam";
Oliver Cary on B camera, "who's really a brilliant A operator and did me a
favor"; key grip Mitch Lillian, "whose reputation I've known of for many years,
and who can solve any problem"; dolly grip Brendan Lowry, "who always kept
me in good spirits"; and 1st AC Eric Swanek, "always my first choice on
features." Lachman also highlights the contributions of his longtime gaffer,
John DeBlau, whose creative approach to lighting and remarkable efficiency
have contributed to the cinematographer's work.
"I'd also like to mention the dedication and proficiency of my Cincinnati
crew," Lachman adds, "who I worked with on Carol as well, for always being
there for me and DeBlau - under the leadership of Russ Faust, a talented
gaffer himself."

'invasion' between the exterior and
the interior." For example, he notes,
the yellow-greenish hue from the
practicals in the law offices "play
against the coolness coming from
outside the windows. Also, when Rob
visits his grandmother's house, there
are little candelabra lights over her
table that provide a sense of warmth
in the scene, which is surrounded by
fading winter light."
Independent of those psychological elements, Lachman explains,
"I always try to use contrasting colors
within the frame because I feel the
viewer's eye loses the ability to see
the subtlety of just one color."
The law offices, Haynes says,
are "such an amazing location. We
shot in both the real Taft law offices,
and also built our conference room
and Rob's office 10 floors above the
real Taft offices in the same building."
All of this, Haynes adds, played
perfectly into the kind of cinematic
storytelling that Pakula and Willis
achieved in those paranoid thrillers of
the '70s.
"The views that you saw out
the windows, with the Cincinnati
architecture, are partly blocked,
