Never one averse to taking risks, Tarantino reprised an old filming technique that hadn’t been utilized in over 20 years for his 2015 project The Hateful Eight. Tarantino decided to shoot the film in 70mm — making The Hateful Eight the first film shot with that wide of a lens since 1992’s Far and Away. Special equipment and outdated technology was needed to successfully screen the film, leading to many delays across the nation. One of Tarantino’s most ambitious decisions, audiences were split on the effectiveness of the wide-shot.
