Civil War 2024
One of the most well made and visually beguiling war films of the past few years. Would make the hairs on Roger Deakins arms prick up.

All worth it if only for it's orgiastic cinematography and mise-en-scene.

Whole sale butchery and trash of source material. The perfect example of a book and movie that are two separate entities and someone who reads and completely misunderstands a book. A complete and absolute insult to the name of one of America's greatest living writers.

Wonder Wheel 2017
A true marvel of cinematic storytelling. This is exactly how you use cinematography to tell a story. When characters go through changes so do the type of shots that the characters are seen through. Important roles are characterized through different tones of light that shift with emotional changes. Should have been nominated for an academy award for cinematography, but unfortunately people are more concerned with the director's personal life than the actual value of the work.
