A video depicting a simple 3D scene of a monkey’s head wearing a top hat in the center looking at the camera and a spherical white light off to the left. Immediately after the video starts the camera begins to tremble and shake, growing more erratic over time until the image begins jumping around the screen in a jarring manner.

Thief was such a visually arresting film for its era. Was there a lot of visual research you did for it — films, photographs, things like that? Not affecting the visualization. The visualization of it was: How do I want you to feel about Frank relative to the city he’s operating within, the circumstances of his life? I wanted you to see and feel that city from within his perspective. For Frank, Chicago is not this flat city built on the Great Plains. It’s a three-dimensional matrix. It’s a maze that he has to operate in and also decode and pursue. So, I took advantage of what Chicago looks like when it rains. Because as the black streets get reflective and the lights reflect off them, you feel like you’re driving through a tunnel, not like you’re driving on top of a surface. We wet down the streets at night so they would be reflective, and that became the camera perspective, as well as him having that black ’71 Eldorado and seeing the lights reflected all over the car as he moved through it.
