In order to achieve a desaturated look for the film, Ichikawa and cameraman Kazuo Miyagawa devised the cinematographic technique known as bleach bypass. Ichikawa had been inspired by the photography for John Huston's 1956 adaptation of Moby-Dick.

In 2010 the director Yoji Yamada released his own version of the same story under the same name, Otōto, which was dedicated to Kon Ichikawa.

gollark: I mean, Ice Lake is moderately better GPU-wise, but Intel hasn't really done much for CPU perf.
gollark: AMD is probably better right now, in general.
