Did Set Decorations and Greens really dig out and build canoes? Isn’t that going above and beyond?
“I, together with the location manager, Mike Hixon, chose a location for the Cherokee that was quite different and quite contrasting from the Mohawk. There are topographical features of water and there’s some quite nice rock face that give it the kind of North American feel. They were quite agricultural. They grew a whole lot. They weren’t out hunting so much. They were growing their own thing, they were sustaining themselves… When you’re cutting between the two you have a very different feel both in the lighting and mood and in structure.”
