The actor was mesmeric on the big screen, directed by many great directors such as Anderson, Steven Spielberg and Martin Scorsese. Unless it’s their own production, online streaming platforms are just another source of revenue for a producer to “recover”. I definitely want to watch the one Scorsese is making for Netflix both on my laptop and the big screen. For matinee idols and stars like Pitt and Khan, the internet streaming platform is hardly revolutionary. Between the two extremes—tent pole and online streaming—is cinema conceived and shot in real time keeping just the big screen in mind?
