19 Intimate Movie Moments That Show What Films Look Like Before Editing

We tend to judge films by their plot and neglect other aspects. Cinematography, direction, special effects, and editing, among other things, are fundamental to creating a complete film experience. As the behind-the-scenes images and stories often do not transcend, we do not learn about the work that goes on behind the scenes. To reevaluate our vision of movies, we prepared the following compilation of pics that show just how hard everyone works in a film crew.
