and why did none of it get oscar nods??????????????????????????????????????
the cinematography in 'klute' literally made my jaw drop. its better than any photography done now - yet it received no recognition. same with films like annie hall. wtf!!!!
Ughhh.... Meryl has to wait AT LEAST another year now. FML
I just watched Klute for the 1st time today and wanted to comment on the Cinematography as well. The 70's had very naturalistic cinematographer that is a little lost now. I love the look of both Godfathers, The Conversation, Marathon Man, All the President's Men etc.
shareInteresting thread. I like American movies from the seventies, I think it's the best period in American cinema. I've always felt that the seventies movies have a distinct look and feel, which is hard to describe (movies from other periods have their own looks). This special look could be partly due to cinematography. But it could also be in part due to the general look of these times. I mean the streets, buildings, clothes, hairstyles, cars - all these things change with history and this history is recorded in the movies. Naturally we would come to associate movies from a particular period with a distinct look.
shareNot only cinematography but the best all around,It was the most experimental film making.Things were invented in ways common today.Things in the 70's ( SOME) were stripped down to their Raw Organic reality.I think the best example are the early 70's work of Ken Russell.His use of nudity was not done as a giggly gimmick.
shareThe movie was too dark to see any cinematography
