Kodak negotiating deal with studios to bring movie film back
The production of traditional movie film has decreased tremendously for Kodak since the rise of digital technology. As more and more studios shifted to digital video, the company's sales plummeted in the last seven years.
But now a number of major directors, including Quentin Tarantino and J.J. Abrams and Christopher Nolan, have come together to help bring movie film back.
Wall Street Journal reporter Ben Fritz has been writing about this and he joins Take Two to talk more about the plan.
