He came up with the story; Jack Thorne helped him adapt it.
Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones are a great team. She's as good as he is - probably better. I thought she was award-worthy. Didn't get nominated for anything. The film is unusual in that there's no romantic plot at all.
Splendidly photographed by George Steel in 2.39 on the ground and 1.85: 1 in the air. The main balloon action was filmed in a 100 x 100 foot bluescreen stage with 360 degree lighting. Some of the changes in climate were created with a box filled with smoke in front of the light source. It looks fabulous. Louis Morin is the VFX supervisor (he describes it as the 'department of miracles').
Mark Eckerberg edited. Great sound as well.
