I am working in Television and Film Industry but I didn't know that Americans are very specific with the technical aspects of their film. Now I know why Tomb Raider was a success. It's because people have worked hard for it and all the things have been chosen strictly! I love the idea that the producers and everyone involved in the film have this passion, than even the smallest detail matters a lot!
