21 of the Most Beautifully Shot Movies of All Time
A good movie takes several ingredients: performance, styling, sets, cocaine, equipment, etc. What separates the good movies from the awe-inspiring ones, however, is cinematography. Otherwise, you could just set up a camera and tell the actors to go nuts. Wes Anderson has been pretty successful with that technique, but audiences usually ask for a little more.
Redditor shawtyisdrunk is a member of that audience. “I’m looking for films that will completely blow my mind visually, ones with shots that’ll leave me speechless,” they told r/MovieSuggestions. “Even though I’ve already watched a lot of the movies with incredible cinematography … I’m still eager to find a few hidden gems or some that maybe I missed.”
They then asked, “What movies do you think have the best cinematography ever?” and nothing but beauty followed.
