Hotel Scene

I really like the depth of focus on these shots. They are very effective in relaying Neville's solitude. Russell Metty was a genius and Boris Sagal was underrated ..

I love this scene. Was it filmed at the Bonaventure downtown or was it a set?

Re: Hotel Scene

I never really appreciated this scene until you posted the pics. It is awesome in its simplicity of Neville just walking through.

I would say that it's a movie set. Towards the end of the scene Neville is sitting on a lobby couch and if you look behind him, through the revolving door, it looks like a painted background to me.

Re: Hotel Scene

Andy - it looks like the outside is real, probably filmed in WB's famous backlot.



Another long shot displaying Neville's solitude...

Re: Hotel Scene

Mike, thanks for posting these pics... the hotel scene is one of my favorites. I also think the score during the this scene is the highlight of the OM soundtrack: very haunting, and appropriate, in highlighting Neville's solitude.

Re: Hotel Scene

I love that scene. I wish some more of these "fact finding" mission scenes could have been more a part of the movie.
