Days of Heaven is one of the most deserved wins in the Academy's history. The whole story is told in its ethereal images. Not to mention Morricone's equally gorgeous music to accompany it.
This video made me realize that my dad subconsciously created my intense, deep love for cinematography. Nearly every movie on this list was one my dad had watched with me, usually to my mother's distain, but I'm SO happy he did. He's the reason I do what I do. I had a transformative experience watching this.
The cinematography on many pre-2000 movies is amazing, what good cameras they had back then, I love movies from the 70s, 80s and 90s that still look current, coupled with a good script, good direction and acting you have a movie that has aged well or hasn't aged. Some of my favorite movies here are: Bonnie and Clyde Barry Lyndon, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Apocalypse Now, Out of Africa, The Mission, Dances with Wolves, A River Runs Through It, JFK, Schindler's List, Legends of the Fall, Titanic, American Beauty, LOTR: The Fellowship of the Ring, Master and Commander, The Aviator, Memoirs of a Geisha, There Will Be Blood, Birdman, Blade Runner 2049, and finally Dune did an amazing job with cinematography.
@@kdreamscosmos4279I think digital cameras aren’t the problem nowadays, people just think because their camera is digital that the cinematography doesn’t require effort.
Don't get me wrong i don't want to promote this but please if possible anytime check out an indian movie named qala and see its cinematography and lighting. Its the most gorgeous movie i have ever seen unfortunately highly underrated, hope u see it sometime.
If there is one category in the Oscar’s that is always right, it’s this one. I think we as a society have grown away from the art of film and forgot what it started as, and what it means to us. It became the moving picture, a picture that not only can capture our story in real time, but we can artistically and dramatically portray real and fictional moments with out words. To capture a person walking through a meadow, the landscape of a city torn apart by war, alien life thriving in the depths of space. This category; the art of cinematography is the truest form and truest art of film. It is simply capturing the spectacle and greatness of setting and scene of a film in all of its beauty gleaming of unsophistication in that moment to generalize hours of art. Truly, the category of cinematography amazes me and is the art.
Beautifully described. Though I think that said films are still being made, only they’re harder to find. Commercialized movies overshadow good, or even amazing films that actually have a deeper meaning. It’s a shame that an art form like this is exploited by media giants like Disney.
While I don't know about always, because obviously art is subjective and the Oscar's have been going far too long to be batting 1000, I do think they've gotten it right more than most categories have.
During a summer filmmaking course at NC-School of the Arts back in 2003, we were shown THE MISSION as part of our understanding of the art of cinematography. As far as favorite cinematographers of mine are concerned, John Toll, Vilmos Zsigmond, and Emmanuel Lebezski are among my Top Ten.
What's even more astounding is that it was only nominated *once!* It boggles my mind how they award the first film in the category then never nominated it again. Return of the King easily should have won that Oscar (which would've made it the most awarded film at the Oscar's ever).
I think return of the king had incredible cinematography. Almost on par with the fellowship. I love the shot of the nazgul diving from the clouds towards minas tirith
@@chaosthebaryonyx6344 Honestly that whole 'Siege of Gondor' sequence is one of the most electrifying bits of film I have ever seen, from the score to the cinematography, it's all just cinematic perfection. For me, the lighting of the beacons is a great example of ROTK's cinematography.
Thank you for this beautiful video! I got reminded of some of the masterpieces that I watched and that I would like to rewatch sometime again :) Great music too!
Beautiful compilation, I appreciate the work here. It's interesting just how many of these films are 'historical epics', from Days of Heaven, to The English Patient, to The Revenant and 1917, and how many of them are in grand outdoor locations with incredible light. Even the stylised wuxia film Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon is set in a historical China. It's not until you get to the 2010s that the present and future begin to dominate, with La La Land, Gravity, Bladerunner 2049, Birdman, Dune, and Inception.
'The Assassination of Jesse James...' should have been up there. Stunning. No Country for Old Men also has it's moments- I think it was the same cinematographer on both coming to think about it.
Yeah Deakins did both Also Fargo, Sicario, Prisoners, The Shawshank Redemption, Jarhead, Skyfall, and his 2 Oscar winners here (Blade Runner 2049 & 1917) Works a lot with the Coen Brothers & Sam Mendes
@@MajorMlgNoob ok wow I didn't realise that he did all those films too. Sicario has a similar look/feel to No Country at times but could be due to the similar setting.
isn't it funny that if you did the same video with best picture winners I wouldn't be nearly as moved as I was know. Barry Lyndon, There Will Be Blood, Master and Commander, etc. Good stuff, tyvm
@@vgcuts you can write their names in the description, so we (cinematography lovers) can check their other works on IMDB or Wiki,,,, btw, thanks for collecting it in 1 video
Most of the films listed here, i solely watched it for the stunning cinematography, specially Days of Heaven (1978) by Terrence Mallick. It was so stunning to see all those simple but breathtaking views 🤩🔥
Amazing montage. Cinematography is my fav Oscar category. Where’s the name? People only remember the directors. Cinematographers are so important for all movies
@@ras_732 it is. But Bruno Delbonnel's work in Tragedy of Macbeth is another level. He made the iconic imagery that was essential for the type movie that Tragedy of Macbeth is. But i guess that dont had the right promotion with the guilds and sindicates or the Oscars.
A lot of all time great cinematographers and beautiful movies. I have been lucky to have worked on a couple of these films and with twenty of these cinematographers over the last 45 years. 2 have won three, 4 have won two.
Thanks for the compilation. Would have been good, if the Cinematographer names are also mentioned in the video along with the movie. They deserve the credit. The selection of music is excellent. Mind soothing while watching the video.
amo que tres años seguidos hayan ganado directores mexicanos (2013, 2014 y 2015) y luego otra vez con Roma en 2018 claro, sin olvidarse del laberinto del fauno de Guillermo del Toro🥹 un orgullo que sean mexicanos 🇲🇽
The fact that it wasn't even nominated is the crazier thing. At least the cinematographer himself would go onto win 2 Oscars in the future (one of them posthumously).
1917 is absolutely stunning. Going to the movies without knowing a single thing about it and by the time the 10:26 scene comes up i had a feeling something is not right (meaning i will absolutely weep at some point in the movie, and i did lol)
1917 i felt was a bit too gimmicky, the story is really quite bare, and it depends entirely on the spectacle of a 'oner', which too many films are trying to imitate now, and doesn't really stand the test of time. That said, there's no doubt that the practical feats of the movie is very much worth the praise it got, but thats really its one feature.
Beautiful editing, mesmerizing sound and a cup of coffee while wacthing this what else do u need to feel your life being full filled seeing all stunning shots in one roof!!
I'm always scared by these types of videos because the years are going by so fast the movies from 2000 seem like they were released the other day but it's been more than 10 or 20 years....scary
To be very honest, most people who love cinema usually avoid the Oscars, the Oscars are a good way to understand US-centric films, their motivations and desires. A large part of why the Oscars are so successful is because they often balance between commercial viability and the quality of the cinematography of films, with a strong emphasis on the former. I am not saying it's a bad thing but it is a rather myopic lens. Perhaps, one of the more controversial films to win in recent years, Alfonso Cuaron's Roma (one of my top choices) is based out of Mexico and has no grandiose, deeply motivated plot or other themes which are common within American literature or films and popular culture in general, it is a film that seems as boring as boring gets, however, its cinematography for me is far superior than the big guns that are space films, Sci-Fi films or elaborate period dramas. in Roma, It is the celebration of humanity in its raw form in an absence of a dogmatic reverence to realism that transcends the monotony of an everyday Mexican family into a beautifully crafted masterpiece.
I’m sorry, But Interstellar not winning in 2014 over Birdman is probably the biggest robbery in cinema history. The movies visualisation of a black hole literally gave such an accurate representation of a black hole that scientists used it as an example. Not only that. Who else’s Jaw dropped when seeing that film cut to a 1000 metre high wave. Christopher Nolan has been snubbed so many times. It’s almost expected at this point. People always argue “his movies are overrated” I’ve never seen a director narrate a story as beautifully as Nolan does. Remove Hanz Zimmers music from the black hole scene and you’ll still be astounded by how beautiful it is.
Both of Villeneuve’s contributions here are massively well-deserved. I could watch Dune/BR49 daily.
I agrea. Villeneuve is such an under-rated director/filmmaker.
He doesn't miss

To be very honest, most people who love cinema usually avoid the Oscars, the Oscars are a good way to understand US-centric films, their motivations and desires.
A large part of why the Oscars are so successful is because they often balance between commercial viability and the quality of the cinematography of films, with a strong emphasis on the former. I am not saying it's a bad thing but it is a rather myopic lens. Perhaps, one of the more controversial films to win in recent years, Alfonso Cuaron's Roma (one of my top choices) is based out of Mexico and has no grandiose, deeply motivated plot or other themes which are common within American literature or films and popular culture in general, it is a film that seems as boring as boring gets, however, its cinematography for me is far superior than the big guns that are space films, Sci-Fi films or elaborate period dramas.
in Roma, It is the celebration of humanity in its raw form in an absence of a dogmatic reverence to realism that transcends the monotony of an everyday Mexican family into a beautifully crafted masterpiece.
"A Hidden Life" 2019 was the most deserving in this category - anyting by Terrence Malick.
The choice to award Gravity but not Interstellar shows everything wrong with the Oscars
definitely not the best cinema has to offer, still some legendary ones like apocalypse now, there will be blood and barry lyndon 👍🏾
and chivo lubezki three years in a row !!
@@generixo I think the Academy might disagree with you'😀
Emmanuel Lubezki won 3 consecutively and the most out of this list
the text font at the beggining is kind of a mood killer lol
It’s sad not even one back to the future movie was in there
close encounters of third kind was CRAZYY
I’m sorry, But Interstellar not winning in 2014 over Birdman is probably the biggest robbery in cinema history.
The movies visualisation of a black hole literally gave such an accurate representation of a black hole that scientists used it as an example. Not only that.
Who else’s Jaw dropped when seeing that film cut to a 1000 metre high wave. Christopher Nolan has been snubbed so many times. It’s almost expected at this point. People always argue “his movies are overrated” I’ve never seen a director narrate a story as beautifully as Nolan does.
Remove Hanz Zimmers music from the black hole scene and you’ll still be astounded by how beautiful it is.
The Mission , from 1986, with Robert De Niro and Jeremy Irons is a great film.It's been many years since I saw in the '90s, it feels like yesterday.
all quite in the western front 2022 soon...
All such incredible films and then there's Hugo....
the music is beautiful
There's the Cinematography of every single Movie ever made, And then there is the Cinematography of 1917.
I can't believe they made a movie about 2019 in 1917
