For anyone that still thinks Paul’s rise to power in DUNE is up for interpretation… here’s Denis setting the record straight. He rewrote Chani to basically spoon feed the audience that “Paul is bad” - but it’s quite clear a lot of DUNE fans think he’s still like Luke

visionary artists are often seen as hard, reclusive, or outright assholes, but David Lynch proved you could work at the highest level, have a ‘who gives a fuck’ attitude, and still lead with heart and humility. he was a hero of mine and always will be. this one hurt.

Fraser confirmed using the re-housed soviet Helios lens again in DUNE: PART TWO - he previously used it for some sequences for THE BATMAN. You can always spot this lens from the wild swirly bokeh, and ever since trailer 2 this shot of Walken screamed Helios 44-2.

Why does SUPERMAN look like that? Well, it's partially because Gunn and cinematographer Henry Braham shot with a Leica Tri-Elmar. It's a fairly obscure wide angle photography lens that features 3 user switchable focal lengths (16mm, 18mm, and 21mm) all in one. Based on my own

A great way to understand contrast and its impact on cinematography is to view shots you like in black and white. I know photographers and DPs who monitor their images this way when shooting - it helps focus on light and composition without the distraction of color. Sometimes,

Watching THE BRUTALIST feels like unearthing something we all believed was lost forever, and when it’s finally in front of you, it’s almost impossible to believe it exists. Throughout the entire film, I kept thinking, ‘I thought we forgot how to do this…’
