What does the cinematography of The Monster look like?

Across 29 sampled frames, The Monster builds its coverage from medium shots, with wide compositions carrying much of the rest. Cinematographer Julie Kirkwood keeps most of it in soft, low-key light. Most of the frames play at night or in the failing light of dusk. Anamorphic glass shapes the frame. Focus stays shallow in most of the frames, isolating subjects from their surroundings.
