Alexander Payne claimed that he wanted to envoke fine art black and white photography, like that of Ansel Adams, to highlight the landscape of Nebraska and the somewhat monochromatic mood of the story and its characters.
"It just seemed like the right thing to do for this film," he said. "It's such a beautiful form, and it's really left our cinema because of commercial, not artistic, reasons; it never left fine-art photography. This modest, austere story seemed to lend itself to being made in black and white, a visual style perhaps as austere as the lives of its people."
