Transcript

00:00My first reaction when I saw the set was, oh, holy shit.

00:04It's so beautiful. It should be a real restaurant.

00:10Welcome to Pallet. Do you have a reservation with us tonight?

00:12We had to create our own enormous set.

00:15Sort of thematically embraced the concept of the movie that Violet is trapped.

00:21Someone keeps sending me these drops.

00:22What do you think it is?

00:23If you look around, you'll notice there are a lot of gold bars

00:26to sort of create this idea of a gilded cage.

00:29It's in my notes that you had called and observed this table specifically.

00:33It's funny I don't remember doing that.

00:34The attention to detail is insane.

00:36All of these things on the ceiling are held by individual little clips

00:40and there's hundreds of them.

00:42The script was really suspenseful.

00:44You just had to create a world that could sustain this story

00:47and sustain the suspense.

00:49It's about claustrophobia and entrapment.

00:52The actors really felt like they were in a restaurant.

00:54Every detail is beautiful and the lighting is really cool

00:58because it's lit in the way that we shoot.

01:00It's all in practical lighting.

01:01You just really feel like you're in it.

01:02Are we ready to order?

01:04Yeah, I think so.

01:05In many ways, they were operating a restaurant.

01:08Everything had to happen at a very specific time

01:10in a very specific way.

01:12So table four was on appetizers.

01:14Table ten was on mains.

01:16That was always happening in the background

01:19and I was so impressed every day

01:20with how smooth all that stuff went.

01:25It's just a date.

01:26No!

01:27No!

01:28No!
