This list is BAD… Best cinematography? What about Tarkovsky, Felllini and for example 2001?

Nice list Although “best” cinematography is a variable term depending on the taste

If it was me id have replaced one of the movies with “The fountain”.. because by my belief effects also depend on the cinematography.. and the effects in the fountain incorperate very minimalistic CG and more of maro photography..

If u havnt watched it might i suggest watchin it and reading about the effects and how they were made..

I very much agree with Schindler’s List being on here. That was a brilliant movie. I also think that What Dreams May Come belongs on here. That movie has my all time favorite cinematography.

I know i’ll get a lot of flack for this but I consider Children of Men as having some of the best cinemotography in all of movie history. The scene with the baby being caried down the stairs is one of the most amazing pieces of cinemotography ever.

12 Angry Men I’d also consider one of the best simply the way the cinemotography is able to capture the intensity of the situation in two very bland rooms

I loved Memoirs of a Geisha! I know its recent, but I thought that Public Enemies was amazing. The camera work gave it a real first person perspective, at least for me!

did anyone notice that in crouching tiger hidden dragon that you could clearly see the strings attached to the actors and props, and for some reason the people seemed to fly?
