Light sensitivity of modern digital sensors is far superior to any film, especially for the quality delivered. Like, really far. You won't be able to get every characteristic of that lens, such as the absurdly shallow depth of field, but you can get close with a much less exotic (but still rare) lens around f/1. People were admiring how closely you could reproduce the look of the candlelit scene all the way back when Canon inadvertently kicked off the low-cost ciné phenomenon with the EOS 5D Mark II. I think most know that the major barrier to making a movie proper is the hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars spent on everything else. Even ignoring paying for talent, the outrageous budgets of even lower-tier films are widely publicized. But many are also tickled pink to make something out of ordinary life that has some of that Hollywood look.
