Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Ang Lee shot at 120 frames per second in 4K 3D — only a handful of theaters worldwide could actually play it properly.
The novel's author Ben Fountain spent years unemployed after publishing; this film adaptation arrived as 'Oscar bait' and promptly bombed, becoming its own meta-commentary on American failure.
