DID YOU KNOW? MCCABE & MRS. MILLER represents the beginning of director Robert Altman's innovative practice of overlapping dialogue in his films. Altman also wanted an antique, historical look, so he partially exposed the negatives to destroy the clarity of the film and to create the impression that one is viewing the film through a pane of stained glass. In this exclusive AFI Archive video, Elizabeth Perkins and Ed Burns talk about this innovative film.
