The Man Who Wasn’t There | The Coen Brothers | 2001

gregorygalloway:

O Brother, Where Art Thou? was first screened at the Cannes Film Festival on 13 May 2000.

With a plot taken from Homer and a title taken from Preston Sturges (1941′s Sullivan’s Travels), the Coen Brothers’ 8th feature film included many cast and crew they had worked with previously, including cinematographer Roger Deakins (5th film with the brothers), John Turturro (4th film), John Goodman (3rd film), Charles Durning (2nd), and Holly Hunter (2nd).

Music was integral to the story from the start, and the soundtrack was recorded before filming even started.

The film was released in the US in December, and was a commercial and critical success, nominated for 2 Academy Awards: Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Cinematography. It did not receive an Oscar.

The soundtrack (released in December) topped the US Billboard charts and received the Album of the Year Grammy Award in 2002 (only the 2nd soundtrack to receive the award), and Ralph Stanley received the Grammy for Best Male Country Vocal Performance for “O, Death.” The soundtrack was also named Album of the Year at the Academy of Country Music Awards and International Bluegrass Music Awards. It has sold more than 8 million copies.

You look lonely. I can fix that.

Sicario (2015) - dir. Denis Villeneuve

Sicario offers itself up as a violent-with-a-purpose film that will make you think about the reality of the Mexican drug cartels and how they interact with the American government. With Emily Blunt standing in for the hyper-masculine-male-drifter character, the film has a hook, and with Roger Deakins behind the camera you know it’s going to be pretty. You only need wait three or four minutes between some beautiful set piece matched with even better cinematography. Villeneuve is a young but already accomplished director, and it’s clear he has great faith in his material.

Maybe someone should have been there to tone down his faith a little. Taylor Sheridan’s script is a laughable clunker, and instead of a violent movie that forces us to think, we end up forced to think Sicario is just another violent film, and if it really had a point, apparently Villeneuve was too afraid to just come out and say it outright. It’s too bad, because Josh Brolin was absolutely terrific here.

Notable Strengths – Instead of strengths I am just going to take a moment of appreciation for Roger Deakins, because there are no weaknesses in the cinematography of this film. Deakins has displayed again his mastery of contemporary cinematography and camera systems, but has gone above and beyond with the thermal scenes and ambition on the shooting of the action sequences.

I know oscars don’t mean much to professionals who get to do this every day, and his work might not be as flashy as shooting 70mm sensors or reviving new film stock, but if you were asked to name one person to write the textbook 21st century cinematography, it would have to be Deakins, and I hope he gets rewarded for his fantastic work in his lifetime.
