Oscar Nominees: Best Cinematography


My predictions: 5/5

This was pretty easy since the only upset I feared was the film that got almost completely shut out ("Into the Wild"). Terrific list, I am rooting for "The Assassination of Jesse James" but I of course loved both "Atonement" and "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly".

My current bet to win: "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly"

Cinematography is something that too many people take for granted. As most film fans know, great cinematography is rare. I remember seeing The Aviator and wondering if anyone else in the theatre was blown away by the stunning visuals. Sadly there aren't enough places around today where someone can learn great film making. I found a program on the web called Film Connection, http://www.film-connection.com. They offer one on one mentoring and you can study from anywhere in America.
