The task i was given in this blog post, was to find a film of my choice, and find anything i can find about its pre production stages as well as what resources they had such as what their budget was and what that budget was used for.

From this i was able to learn how complex and expensive the making of a film really is, and how many people are really involved in the process.

This will help me in future revision, when perhaps i need to compare a film to another i now know a great deal about this movie and would be confident to use it in an answer.
