People are forgetting this is shot on 70mm film, basically medium format 120 in terms of stills. When you’re talking about a format that large you can get a very shallow depth of field that you’d need a super wide aperture to get on full frame. Also the lens is a lot longer to get the same field of view. If it looks unusual that’s probably why- not exactly a common look in cinema!

Oh yeah for sure not a tilt shift! I meant to agree with you! Sorry if that wasn’t clear 😅
