Under Pressure: The Making of THE ABYSS

Postby FlyingPenguin » Sat Nov 28, 2020 3:04 am

I had heard stories of the massive work this film involved, and the complex problems they had to deal with filming a large portion of it under water in custom diving suits, specially designed for the movie, in a custom built under water set.

Really fascinating and detailed behind the scenes:

"It would disturb me if there was a wedding between the religious fundamentalists and the political right. The hard right has no interest in religion except to manipulate it.” - Billy Graham (1981 interview)

Wow that was amazing. I've seen the movie several times and it never gets old.
