Directors Cinematography Draft (1 Viewer)

[Brook K]

M - Fritz Arno Wagner

 

[JohnRice]

City of Lost Children - Darius Khondji

 

[Brook K]

Good one John (why didn't I think of that one?)

Also realized I completely forgot about the film I was going to take next. Hope Agee doesn't grab it before it gets back to me.

 

[Walter Kittel]

I know exactly how you feel Brook. I have a good idea what my next two selections are going to be, and I'm really debating...

a) Which one should I pick first?
b) Which of them, if not both, is more likely to be picked by someone else?
c) Of the two, which am I more comfortable potentially "losing" to someone else?

If the current lists stay on track, these votes are going to be extremely difficult, as there have been a number of great choices so far.

- Walter.

 

[JohnRice]

Someone finally liked one of my picks. I feel all warm inside.

 

[Rain]

The Graduate Robert Surtees

 

[ErikG]

The Shining - John Alcott

 

[Agee Bassett]

I think your pick's safe, Brook.

Portrait of Jennie (Joseph August)

 

[SteveGon]

Up next:

Erik
Walter
Justin

 

[ErikG]

The Abyss (Mikael Salomon)

 

[Walter Kittel]

I Am Cuba (Soy Cuba) (Sergei Urusevsky)

- Walter.

 

[Justin_S]

My next pick is my favorite film of all time, which also has some gorgeous and hypnotic cinematography:

REQUIEM FOR A DREAM- Matthew Libatique

 

[Rain]

I'm going to pick the movie that first made me notice cinematography.

Tucker: The Man and His Dream Vittorio Storaro

And if you haven't seen it in the original 2.40:1 AR, then you haven't seen the movie I'm talking about. :p)

 

[SteveGon]

Rain, very nice pick!

I'll take The Sacrifice - Sven Nykvist

Coincidentally, The Sacrifice is the first film that made ME sit up and take notice of cinematography.


Up next:

Brook
John
Agee

 

[Brook K]

No it wasn't safe Agee, but it was Walter that took it. Then Justin grabbed another off my list. Better get this one before Justin takes it too:

Suspiria - Luciano Tovoli

 

[Justin_S]

Damn! :frowning: Well, you presumed right, as SUSPIRIA was my next choice.

 

[SteveGon]

Up next:

John
Agee
Erik

 

[JohnRice]

Justin didn't get Suspiria. You let that one wait far too long.



Body Snatchers - Bojan Bazelli

 

[Agee Bassett]

No it wasn't safe Agee, but it was Walter that took it.

Yes, the moment I saw Walter's pick I figured that was the one you were talking about (it would have been my next pick, too). :frowning:

Duel in the Sun (Lee Garmes, Harold Rosson, Ray Rennahan)

 

[Walter Kittel]

I'll take that as a 'Nice pick'

FWIW, I've lost a few choices as well. ( I hope my next two make it through unscathed. )

- Walter.
