Rory Kennedy Makes Persuasive ‘Case Against Boeing’ With Sundance Doc
在“倒台:反波音的案件”中,董事罗里·肯尼迪(Rory Kennedy)调查了两次波音737 MAX撞车事故,这些撞车事故发生在2018年和2019年彼此之间五个月内发生,造成了346人的总和。肯尼迪的Netflix Doc在航空专家,新闻记者,前波音员工,美国国会和受害者家属的指导下,揭示了一种鲁ck的成本削减和企业隐瞒的文化。这是肯尼迪(Kennedy)的第六次参加圣丹斯(Sundance)的电影。他们是将这个项目带给您的,还是这部电影是您的主意?这是我的主意。我一直在关注这个故事,我是否出于各种原因对它感兴趣,所以就在大流行之前,我决定做到这一点。您对这个话题感兴趣吗?好吧,我们都飞了,对吗?当我们预订飞机票时,当我们沿着停机坪上行驶以上飞机时,在那架飞机上,我们相信这些公司,航空公司,制造商,国会和监管机构正在寻找我们。这部电影确实向我们表明,这并不总是会发生,我们必须提出这些需求。这是您第一次在DOC中使用CGI吗?如果是这样,它是否具有挑战性?是的。这是我使用的第一部电影。这是一个有趣的挑战,确保您从飞机的角度和太阳(在坠机时)的位置正确地得到一切。我希望它感觉现实,但是当然,如\u200b\u200b果这不是真实的话,就向观众清楚地表明。它是在制造的。在9月的前线发布了“波音的致命缺陷”,这是一部有关同一主题的纪录片。这是任何挫折吗?这个主题如此重要,以至于它将自己带入各种讲故事和处理方式。对我来说,讲故事很重要GH真正在前线的人们的观点。因此,我们并没有真正专注于历史学家,甚至没有直接参与这个故事的记者。我觉得听众可以最好地访问它并将其纳入其中。该项目最初是为了成为一系列的一系列。是什么让您想让它一次性?老实说,我认为它也适合一个系列,因为这个故事有很多历史和深度,但最终,我觉得讲述这个故事的最好方法是正是经过90分钟的结构,您可以真正凝结时间表,并将人们吸引并与您保持联系。您希望观众在看这部电影后带走什么?对我来说,这部电影是关于公司崩溃的。这是关于关注公共安全的财务状况。坦白说,这不仅仅是波音。我认为需要一个公司与财务利益与公共利益之间的适当平衡。在许多情况下,我们失去了平衡,我认为我们必须重新获得这种平衡。
In “Downfall: The Case Against Boeing,” director Rory Kennedy investigates two Boeing 737 MAX crashes that occurred within five months of each other in 2018 and 2019 that killed a combined 346 people. Guided by aviation experts, news journalists, former Boeing employees, the U.S. Congress and the families of victims, Kennedy’s Netflix doc reveals a culture of reckless cost-cutting and corporate concealment driven by Wall Street greed. This is Kennedy’s sixth time attending Sundance with a film.
You teamed with Brian Grazer and Ron Howard’s production house Imagine Entertainment on this project. Did they bring this project to you or was this film your idea?
It was my idea. I had been following the story and was I interested in it for a whole range of reasons, so just before the pandemic I decided to make it.
What interested you about the topic?
Well, we all fly, right? When we book our plane tickets, when we walk down the tarmac to get on the plane and when we are on that plane, we are trusting that these corporations, airlines, manufacturers, Congress and the regulatory agencies are looking out for us. This film really shows us that that doesn’t always happen and that we have to make those demands.
You used CGI to re-create the two Boeing flight crash sequences. Is this the first time you used CGI in a doc and if so, did it prove challenging?
Yes. This is the first film I’ve used it in. It was an interesting challenge ensuring that you’re getting everything right in terms of the angle of the plane and where the sun was [at the time of the crash]. I wanted it to feel realistic, but of course, make it clear to the audience if this isn’t real. That it’s being manufactured.
In September Frontline released “Boeing’s Fatal Flaw,” a documentary about the same topic. Was that a setback in any way?
The subject is so important that it lends itself to different kinds of storytelling and ways to approach it. For me, it was important to tell the story through the perspective of the people who were really on the front lines. So we didn’t really focus on historians or even journalists who weren’t directly involved with the story. Having those firsthand accounts and using the firsthand source documents to tell the story, without a narrator, was the way that I felt the audience could best access it and be pulled into it.
The project was originally intended to be a series. What made you want to make it a one-off instead?
Honestly, I think it does lend itself to a series as well, because there’s so much history and depth to this story but ultimately, I felt that the best way to tell this story was through a 90-minute structure where you could really condense the timeline and pull people in and keep them with you.
What are you hoping audiences take away after watching this film?
For me this film is about corporate malfeasance. It’s about focusing on finances over public safety. Frankly, it’s not just about Boeing. I think there needs to be an appropriate balance between corporate and financial interest and the public interest. We have lost that balance in many instances, and I think it’s imperative that we regain that.
