eli5 why period films shot today never look old?

593 views

I’m watching Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and all the tv scenes with Rick look like they’re made to look old, but they don’t look the same as old tv shows. Why is this? Does the technology from the 60’s and 70’s not exist anymore?

That technology exists, but it’s more expensive to record and produce the film like they did back in the 60s and 70s than it is to just digitally record it and add an instagram (exaggerating here) filter over the footage.
