00:03 And Hailey, before they kick me out of here,

00:07 the watercolors used for Gwen's world

00:09 are some of the most remarkable visuals I've ever seen.

00:12 The way that the colors change in the scenes

00:14 to match the emotions.

00:15 When did you finally get to see a finished product of what

00:19 that might look like in the scenes?

00:21 It's always so funny whenever the filmmakers choose

00:26 to show any version of any clip.

00:29 It's always prefaced with like, it's not colored,

00:32 or it's not done, or just trust us.

00:35 And if they didn't say anything, I

00:36 would think it was just absolute perfection at every stage.

00:40 But it wasn't until I saw the film in its entirety

00:42 that I got to see everything that they were talking about.

00:47 And it is truly, truly, truly so incredible, and moving,

00:50 and captivating.

00:53 And yeah, I'm biased, but Gwen's world is pretty beautiful.

00:58 Every frame of this movie could be

01:00 hung on the wall of a museum.

01:01 It honestly belongs there.

01:02 What was that thing about the moving again?

01:04 That was how it was first described to me by Kemp

01:07 and Loretta Miller.

01:09 They basically just said, to give you

01:11 an idea of what Gwen's world is, it's like a mood ring.

01:16 It will visually change as her circumstances change

01:20 and the emotions that she feels we will feel

01:23 in the audience on screen.

01:25 My god, it works so well.

01:27 All right, they're kicking me out.

01:27 Thank you, guys.

01:28 I appreciate your time.

01:29 Thank you.
