Soderbergh's Thriller Shot on iPhone Premieres in Berlin (reuters.com)

Director Steven Soderbergh said this week he so enjoyed making his psychological thriller "Unsane" on an iPhone, he would find it hard to go back to conventional filmmaking. From a report: "Unsane", which premieres at the Berlin film festival, was shot over just two weeks - way shorter than the months a movie usually takes. It tells the story of Sawyer Valentini, who moves to a new city to escape her stalker David but finds herself admitted to a mental health institution where he works.

    The phrase, "shot on an iPhone" is enough to keep me away from it on the big screen. If hand-held filming styles, e.g. "found footage" movies, make you feel a little queezy after a while, just imagine what watching 90 - 180 minutes of hand-held iPhone footage feels like.
