If you were looking for a director to stage a spectacular cataclysm onscreen, Noah Baumbach would probably not be on your short list.<\/p>\n

Baumbach’s sharply observed, often personal movies, including 2005’s \u201cThe Squid and the Whale,\u201d 2014’s \u201cWhile We’re Young\u201d and 2019’s best picture-nominated \u201cMarriage Story,\u201d have featured of plenty of relationship disasters and emotional blow-ups. But there have been no actual explosions, no big car crashes, no visual effects. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe had to deal with blood a little bit in ‘Marriage Story,’\u201d Baumbach says dryly, referring to a scene in which Adam Driver’s character accidentally cuts himself while attempting to perform a knife trick. \u201cBut that’s about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

So when Baumbach was preparing to adapt author Don DeLillo’s seminal 1985 post-modern novel \u201cWhite Noise,\u201d he knew one of the biggest challenges would be filming the book’s dramatic centerpiece: a mysterious \u201cairborne toxic event\u201d that descends upon a small college town , forcing its residents \u2014 including the brainy, neurotic Gladney family \u2014 to evacuate in terror.<\/p>\n

A dozen films into his directing career, Baumbach felt ready to tackle something on a bigger scale. \u201cThere was a different kind of planning, just finding the right people to help, but it was exciting,\u201d he says. <\/p>\n

To be clear, \u201cWhite Noise\u201d is not, by any stretch of the imagination, a typical Hollywood disaster movie. Like the novel from which it is faithfully adapted, the movie, which hits select theaters Friday before arriving on Netflix on Dec. 30, is a satire of the many ways Americans try to distract themselves from their own fear of mortality, throwing themselves into consumerism, entertainment, conspiracy theories and pharmaceuticals. Mashing up quirky comedy with elements of sci-fi, horror and noir, all of it shot through with heady ideas, the film is all but impossible to categorize.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is sort of a meditation on death wrapped in a love letter to the ’80s and sometimes a screwball comedy,\u201d Don Cheadle, who co-stars alongside Driver and Greta Gerwig, offers by way of description. (You know, one of those<\/i>.)<\/p>\n

For years, DeLillo’s novel was considered un-filmable. The book takes place in a world that feels shifted off a few degrees from our own. Its characters \u2014 including the Hitler studies professor Jack Gladney (Driver), his wife Babette (Gerwig) and their precocious children \u2014 speak in deadpan aphorisms that, while often funny, are difficult to translate into real life. It is dense with big ideas, but as a narrative, it’s oddly structured and episodic. <\/p>\n

But Baumbach \u2014 who has loved the book since first reading it as a teenager on the advice of his writer father \u2014 was undeterred by the trickiness of the material.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was really interested in adapting the tone and the particular strangeness of the book, which is also very familiar,\u201d says Baumbach, who has earned two Oscar nominations for original screenplay but had never before adapted someone else’s work. \u201cThere are many movies that have these unreal tones to them, where you’re like, ‘This is totally not what I expected but also feels very much how the world feels to me.’ There are filmmakers like David Lynch who have made whole careers out of that.\u201d<\/p>\n

One of the novel’s most famous sequences is an airborne toxic event that is unleashed when a train carrying noxious chemicals is derailed in an accident. (The rock band Airborne Toxic Event, founded in 2006, took its name from this section of DeLillo’s novel.) As the vaguely menacing cloud drifts toward the unnamed town, the Gladneys and others flee, gripped by varying degrees of panic, even as they are unsure what they are fleeing from.<\/p>\n

In approaching DeLillo’s novel, the airborne toxic event represented to Baumbach both one of its most inherently cinematic elements and one of its most potent metaphors. In its undefined threat, one can read the inescapable specter of death or the planet’s looming environmental catastrophe or the dangers of unchecked technology or our collective penchant for paranoid conspiracy theories. <\/p>\n

Shooting the movie in Ohio during the Delta surge of the COVID-19 pandemic, the airborne toxic event took on a whole new meaning for Baumbach and his cast and crew. The juxtaposition of a fictional airborne threat with a real airborne disease, each freighted with uncertainty and fear, made for a uniquely DeLillo-esque sense of absurdity. <\/p>\n

\u201cDuring those evacuation scenes, you would hear the AD say, ‘OK, now, everybody take off your masks and put on the period masks,’\u201d says Baumbach. \u201cYou didn’t feel the remove from the craziness we were all experiencing.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was one of those things that was kind of self-evident,\u201d says Cheadle, who plays Jack Gladney’s friend and fellow professor, Murray, who studies Elvis. \u201cWe’re walking around with masks on and everybody’s got hand sanitizer. Everybody knew people who were getting sick. The relationship between the subject matter and what we were going through \u2014 the existential dread that everyone was feeling at different levels \u2014 was not lost on us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Visually, the disaster, combined with the movie’s ’80s period setting, offered Baumbach an opportunity to pay tribute to some of the blockbusters of that earlier era. <\/p>\n

In the Gladneys’ harried escape from the cloud in their station wagon, Baumbach saw echoes of the Griswold family’s comic travails on the road to Wally World in \u201cNational Lampoon’s Vacation.\u201d Shots of crowds looking up at the sky in awe and fear evoked Steven Spielberg films like \u201cClose Encounters of the Third Kind.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the novel, DeLillo offers little description of the toxic cloud itself. \u201cWe all had ideas about what it might look like,\u201d says cinematographer Lol Crawley. \u201cYou can look at the end of ‘Ghostbusters,’ for example, where people are looking up at the building, and see a very similar kind of aesthetic. It was a matter of finding a balance where it didn’t look hockey, given that it’s referencing these things from 40 years ago, but still paid homage in some way to those movies.\u201d<\/p>\n

To achieve the look of the toxic event, Baumbach wanted to keep the visual effects as old-school as possible. In the end, the cloud was created with a combination of matte paintings and the kind of cloud tank work that has been used for decades to achieve various atmospheric effects. <\/p>\n

\u201cI wanted the effects to feel aesthetically of the time,\u201d Baumbach says. \u201cEssentially how I would have gone about it back then is how we went about it now. To me, that felt more beautiful and more appropriate than doing something that was entirely digital.\u201d<\/p>\n

In that same spirit, rather than relying on digital effects, production designer Jess Gonchor and his team corralled scores of period ’80s vehicles to make up the convoy of cars jamming the road out of town \u2014 a massive logistical challenge that required closing down a section of highway for months on end. <\/p>\n

\u201cI think at one point we had a couple of hundred cars \u2014 it was incredible that we were able to obtain that many,\u201d says Gonchor. \u201cPolice cars, ambulances, Winnebagos, school buses. It was a major undertaking to get all the cars together and be able to line them up and actually have them moving. I’ve never seen anything like it.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the end, Baumbach leaves it to the audience to decide exactly how to interpret the airborne toxic event. But in its sense of looming, ill-defined peril, he sees a metaphor every bit as ripe with meaning in 2022 as it was in 1985, if not more so.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe book allows for so much interpretation, and I didn’t want to narrow these things,\u201d he says. \u201cWe create this sort of dance for ourselves daily to not acknowledge our mortality, and at the same time, we’re putting all these images of death in our entertainment and following horrible stories with a kind of delight because it’s happening somewhere else or it feels unreal to us. And the airborne toxic event is essentially bringing all that death and horror to our doorstep.\u201d<\/p>\n
