Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close

Nitcentral's Bulletin Brash Reflections: Movies: Drama: Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close

Usually, movies set in Manhattan take advantage of big, sweeping shots that focus on the city, usually with the camera in the center of the island, or sweeping over it. But the opening shot of this trailer instead shows North Bergen, NJ mostly in the shot, which I found surprising, as NB borders my town of Union City. Do the characters live in NB? It would make sense, since it's economically diverse enough that even some well-to-do people like Ice-T live there, but then a subsequent shot shows what appears to be Brooklyn. Is this because of the scavenger hunt on which Tom Hanks sends his son? Or is there no reason at all for the choice of shots?

Anyway, the film looks like it might be good.
