David Byrne's Dazzling Tour Being Turned Into a Film by 'Brutalist' Director Brady Corbet, Shooting in 70mm David Byrne's latest tour turned movie collaboration with director Brady Corbet brings a new level of sophistication to the intersection of music, film, and technology.
By shooting "Who is the Sky? " in 70mm, a format typically reserved for blockbuster epics, Corbet makes a bold statement about the importance of live performance as an art form worthy of cinematic treatment.
Byrne himself acknowledges the impact of Corbet's vision: "When Brady told me he wanted to shoot our show in 70 millimeter... I didn't realize what a difference it would make until I saw some frames he sent me.
