2020-11-08 19:07:36 +0000 UTCThis is possibly the most impressive camera work in any movie ever. The average cut is like one every two minutes, it's insane.

2020-07-02 06:48:23 +0000 UTCthat tracking shot from minute 25:52 - 30:00...absolutely insane. And of course the one starting at 1:23:29 - 1:29:48. Also insane. You kept talking a lot though during this scene, so I don't know if you noticed. 🙄😙 you didn't mention the cinematography at all, (!!) which is one of the best I have seen in my entire life. Lubezki has won a bunch of awards for this and I would also say it's the best cinematography of 2000-2010. Can't think of anything better during that time. I don't wanna sound rude, but your friend talks way too much for my taste, especially during the emotional scenes. But I'm here for you Jimmy. 👍

2020-07-01 22:43:09 +0000 UTCThis movie is in no small way a very slick retelling of Casablanca but with a lot of modern political commentary; its got the bones of Casablanca: A cool, detached gruff guy lives in a place of conflict and suppresses his emotional pain behind his forced detachment. A woman from his past back when he cared about causes comes into his life, asking specifically for help with travel documents to cross a border. The old personal connection and their different paths comes up and eventually he is drawn back into causes and fighting for something despite personal risk.

2020-07-01 21:24:43 +0000 UTCTwo of the greatest tracking shots of all time. I watched them both many many times. And everytime I'm like 'how the hell did they do that?' I guess it's possible when you have Emmanuel Lubezki behind the camera. He also did the cinematography for Gravity, Birdman and The Revenant. - for which he won three oscars in a row for best cinematography. No one ever won three in a row 😁 I love the dystopian look of this movie. And it has sooo many long takes. This man is a genius. And he's probably the best in the business - next to Roger Deakins of course. And Alfonso Cuarón..one of my favorite directors. Who also did Gravity, Roma and Harry Potter & The Prisoner of Azkaban (which has a similar bleak look). This is a fantastic movie which deserved far more attention when it came out. I saw it in an nearly empty cinema when I was 16 and it kinda scared the shit out of me. It's so brutal and gloomy...but at the same time beautiful because there's hope in it too.
