"Standard operating procedure" camera
 
Hi
IMDB says "Standard operating procedure" was shot with HDV.
Anyone knows which camcorder was used?
Thanks
Ron

I can't remember which camera Morris tends to use for the interrotron, but it isn't HDV. For both SOP and Fog of War, he shot the interviews using "high end" (his words) Sony HD cameras, and 35mm for the dramatic shots.

I don't see this claim of HDV in the IMDB listing as it appears now, but an erroneous trivia "fact" which does appear is that "John Williams uses part of "The Imperial March" from Star Wars (1977) briefly in his score for a scene." Williams didn't do the score; Danny Elfman did and I am hard pressed to recall any moment that the score had any kind of reference to the Imperial March (though it did sound like everything else Elfman has ever done. Let's face it, the guy has two songs in him: one is the theme from The Simpsons and the other one isn't).
