Personal interpretation:
For the cinematic reinterpretation of 'Death of a Salesman,' I conducted extensive research on the 1920s and 1950s. Every object, from the smallest item to the construction of the house and buildings, can be traced back to authentic references from these historical periods. There are two main distinct types of lighting used, one for flashbacks and another for the present.
