Insert the tape. Pause, Play and Pause. You wont want to hit the rewind, You wont want to hear our past frames again and again.
Okay, skip that.
I am beginning to think that "The Reader" is one of the most beautiful artistic movie ever but its definitely wasn't analytical to me. Only SI ON was showing his hidden talent of deciphering hidden pixels of the movie while I knew I have a rather long route to go.
While I admired his analysis, I do admired its cinematography. It changes my perception about cinematography alot.
I thought extraordinary cinematography are like those in independent directed film. Where every frame is paused has its potential to be an award winning photograph. Some eyes in the industry are just that great.
Films that have great cinematography and potential of winning the most award winning photograph are those done by Michael Bay's eye. Like transformer. I thought only extremely rectangular ratio movie will look cool, or colour corrected to its peak will be nice too.
But when I look at "The Reader", it changed. It doesnt matter, it can be the usual cinematic ratio of 16:9 and not something you cropped, it not need to be colour corrected to be eye catching or to make colour more lunatic.
In my opinion, the cinematography in "The Reader" has its own genre, its called realist. In my opinion i called it realistic, but maybe professional has its definite terms. The reason its cinematography is named realistic because every frame is just how we see it.
For example, the way they shoot her taking of her shoe, its just like how you look to a person next to you taking of their shoe. Get the drift? Its not artistically and meticulously constructed, its just simply yet cool.
Ah well, some movie talk there. Toodles till next time.
