and lead guitarist, respectively. "It was a
difficult shot because as Marilyn's walking through the party, there's a wall of
glass that shows the pool outside,"

department's work provided periodappropriate visual cues. "We gravitated
toward letting the production design do
a lot of the work, rather than doing
something super-dramatic with different cinematic looks," Pohlad explains.
"That said, the 'Brian-future' era would
have a cold white and blue cast to it. We

Yeoman adds, "We took more
