In this episode recorded live on November 12 at the American Society of Cinematographers Clubhouse in Los Angeles, director Patricia Riggen speaks with four of auteur Steve McQueen’s collaborators on his World War II drama Blitz for Apple Original Films: production designer Adam Stockhausen, editor Peter Sciberras, and supervising sound editors James Harrison and Paul Cotterell. The film recreates events from Germany’s devastating bombardment of London in 1940-41, while also following a mother and son trying to find each other amid the mayhem. “We have to keep retelling these stories, because we keep making the same mistakes,” Harrison says. “We have to keep reminding ourselves of the terror of the past.”
