David Leugers Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Man, way too hard! I did think of your challenge in a different light. I chose the combination of film, director and cinematography that came together in such a way to elevate all three into something truly unique or special. I came up with my choices by voting with my money, those films that met the criteria and where I had paid money many times to view the film in a theater. The champs are: Gone With the Wind The Wild Bunch Apocalypse Now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hampus Bystrom Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 You know I'm going to make a controversial statement, well I don't know how controversial it is really, but I don't like Kubrick. I mean his films are bombastic and overwhelming, but after the initial wonder I always forget them. I've probably given them 5/5 but in hindsight I just remember a cold spectacle. I generally don't like "show-offy" cinema, and I think Kubrick is the prime example of trying to show-off rather than tell a visual story. It's like he's trying to make the "best" film in every genre, you know, Sci-fi with 2001, horror with The Shining, comedy with Dr Strangelove etc. I'd just thought I would share this because it's been bugging me for some time...

J. Lamar King IMPOSTOR Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Way too hard, but... Movie: The Searchers The Natural There Will be Blood Director: Alfred Hitchcock John Ford Vincent Minelli Cinematographers: Robert Hauser Robert Richardson Caleb Deschanel Favorite Quote: John Wayne as Ethan Edwards in The Searchers: "Injun will chase a thing till he thinks he's chased it enough. Then he quits. Same way when he runs. Seems like he never learns there's such a thing as a critter that'll just keep comin' on. So we'll find 'em in the end, I promise you. We'll find 'em. Just as sure as the turnin' of the earth." That line is so loaded with what the character and film are about. Revenge, single mindedness and racism. It was deep, black and felt scary as was There Will be Blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corydon Anderson Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 You know I'm going to make a controversial statement, well I don't know how controversial it is really, but I don't like Kubrick. I mean his films are bombastic and overwhelming, but after the initial wonder I always forget them. I've probably given them 5/5 but in hindsight I just remember a cold spectacle.

I understand where you're coming from. I read somewhere that Kubrick often tried to use the camera to form a separation between the audience and the characters on screen. His work is truly distinct and I guess it's just not for everyone. I think the aspects that you hate about Kubrick are the ones that I love :) My list is: Movies: Withnail and I A Clockwork Orange Y Tu Mama Tambien Director: Stanley Kubrick Terrence Malik Wong Kar Wai Cinematographers: Emmanuel Lubezki Christopher Doyle Jack Cardiff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Leggio Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Concerning Conrad Hall's famous shot from "In Cold Blood" with streaks of light from rain on a window reflected on a character's face -- is it possible that this was done years earlier by Russell Metty in the Sirk film "There's Always Tomorrow" (1956) with Barbara Stanwyck as the face in question? Saw it yesterday, and the similarity of the two shots is astounding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
