"A Complete Unknown" star Timothée Chalamet

Production audio mixed Tod Maitland, part of the team nominated for an Oscar for Best Sound for the film, recalled the star coming to him 10 minutes before a key scene started shooting at New York’s Carnegie Hall. Sequences like the 23-minute concert at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival that concludes the film were incredibly complex to capture as a result, but the filmmaking team was “pleasantly surprised” that the star delivered the goods.
