Completed filmographies: Joel and Ethan Coen[Joel, on filmmaking] I can almost set my watch by how I’m going to feel at different stages of the process. It’s always identical, whether the movie ends up working or not. When you watch the dailies, the film that you shoot every day, you’re very excited by it and very optimistic about how it’s going to work. Then when you see it for the first time you put the film together, the roughest cut, you want to go home and open up your veins and get in a warm tub and just go away. Then it gradually, maybe, works its way back, somewhere toward that optimism you were at before.

It’s true, Kodak has officially stopped production of acetate film base, one of the key components of camera film. Reddit user ApatheticAbsurdist notes that Kodak has enough stock to keep producing film for a few more years, but it’s safe to say the announcement is another blow for film lovers everywhere.
