so was I the only one repeatedly stalking the comments on the three most recent CC-related posts across FW/FL for potentially new developments

Anyway.

Zwart’s biggest challenge was compressing the book into a “normal movie length.” He explained that he kept what we’ll see on screen as authentic as possible because, “I was working closely with Cassandra on a lot of it, and she was very helpful so it was smooth sailing.”

Clare agreed, saying, “I was pretty interfere-y…there really was almost nothing when I didn’t bug Harald about the costumes or sets or story on one level or another. He was sort of introducing me on how to make a movie, and I was talking to him about the stories. It was very collaborative.”

VERSUS:

I had very little control.

(screencapped the tweet just in case)

The distance between the two is vast and beautiful, a shimmering plain of iridescent WTFs that almost hurts to look at. I'm curious as to what Zwart thinks of CC discarding their collaboration so blithely in public.
