Across 38 sampled frames, 1917 builds its coverage from medium shots, with wide compositions carrying much of the rest. Cinematographer Roger Deakins keeps much of it in soft, naturalistic light. Anamorphic glass shapes the frame. Focus stays shallow in most of the frames, isolating subjects from their surroundings. The production design places the film in the 1940s.
