Dreams in Murnau's Sunrise

The Triptych sequence in Abel Gance's Napoleon

High%20and%20Low%20-%208.jpg

All those wide-angle shots in High and Low, especially in the first half



The Hall of Mirrors shootout in Orson Welles' Lady From Shanghai (pity we never got to see the uncut version)

That wonderful tracking shot that follows Catherine Deneuve in The Young Girls of Rochefort, that I can't seem to find online...

Barely scratching the surface. So much great stuff to choose from!

Can people please not post pictures without a title?

Why do posters always do this? It's lazy posting.

My answer is Seven Samurai. Every frame is beautiful. I picked action sequences but even dialogue scenes are framed beautifully.

That driving through traffic gif is beautiful. I was going to say how refreshing it is to see something so mundane shot so beautifully and without CG, then I remembered this VFX breakdown video from Sicario and realized that gif is probably a composite shot. Villeneuve is the master of using CG right, in that you don't notice it.

Moonlight is one of my absolute favourites. Quite simple in execution but beautifully done. Those Hawk Anamorphics are just so perfect for it.

This relatively obscure Japanese movie (19) made in 2000 has stuck with me for reasons I really don't fully understand. It felt very amateur while also somehow effortlessly maintaining a sort of dreamlike mundanity from start to finish. The low quality camera and overblown lighting probably worked in its favor rather than being a detraction.

These two photos are from a movie I saw recently: El Espíritu de la Colmena (1973). There are still many wonderful visuals in this film, in my opinion. However, it is not easy to find an image of it.

The cinematographer, Luis Cuadrado, had a progressive eye disease, which was deteriorating. He committed suicide in 1980 after being unable to work independently on projects such as Cría cuervos (1976), for example, due to his blindness.

....aaaaaaaaaaaaand tagged for me to watch anything I haven't seen.

The beach landing in Saving Private Ryan was/is just incredible. Controlled cinematic chaos that you could see and feel in the theater. Probably one of the most visceral moments of my movie going history. It's horrifically beautiful shot.

Sorry about the crappy grabs, would love some hi-def versions. However, this is one of those "shots/sequences" you really have to watch.

There's no can of worms to open. Anyone arguing the movie doesn't have absolutely beautiful, moving, shots in it is a liar/blind.

This moment/shot is in my top 10 movie/theater moments ever. The imagery and the audio/silence during that shot was just awesome on the big screen.
