So there were certain elements, like in the original script she had three children and it was like 'well, it's harder for me to root for her if she's also cheating on children. One was a woman, Natalie Portman, in a close-up in a helmet in space (opens in new tab) and the other was a mugshot and the idea of how this person who's literally on top of the world ends up in this place.Īnd in order to do that myself, I had to understand the journey she was on but I also had to understand what journey an audience is going to take with her and not just watch her and judge her. It wasn't my job or my goal to tell that specific story, but I was interested in these two images side by side. I was aware that there had been a real-life incident. Noah Hawley: The first thing that I read was that it was already a fictionalized story. How much did this true story influence the film? And it seems fairly obvious that it is based on events from the life of former NASA astronaut Lisa Nowak.
LUCY IN THE SKY MOVIE
: Now, the movie has gained some attention for being loosely based on a true story. And not as a gimmick, but as a way to really try to create a state of mind where you're in her experience. When life seems small, it's small and the sound operates accordingly. When the universe seems big to her, the image is big. And then, you know what also appealed to me immediately was the idea that we could create a theatrical experience by using things that people normally take for granted which is the screen itself, and the sound itself to create a subjective experience. And that didn't necessarily mean scale like a Marvel movie, a "Star Wars" movie (opens in new tab), but it needed to be visual enough, dynamic enough.
