Creating the perfect backdrop for the upcoming “Barbie” movie required so much pink paint that it led to a global shortage, according to its production designer.
Greenwood, who has been nominated for six Academy Awards, including for the art direction of “Pride & Prejudice” and “Atonement,” said constructing the set involved huge amounts of Rosco’s fluorescent pink paint.
Greta Gerwig, who directed and co-wrote the script with Noah Baumbach, told the magazine the color was all-important to the movie. This was part of what Gerwig described as “literally creating the alternate universe of Barbie Land.” They took further inspiration from Palm Springs mid-century modernism. “Everything about that era was spot-on,” said Greenwood, adding that she strove “to make Barbie real through this unreal world.”
