Academy Award Winners for Best Cinematography: 1999 — Janusz Kamiński, ASC Saving Private Ryan (1998) Directed by Steven Spielberg Aspect Ratio: 1.85 : 1

“Steven and I really didn't want to shoot Private Ryan in black-and-white, and I think it would have been a little pretentious to do another World War II film that way. [...] We also wanted to shoot this picture in color because there is some blood in the film and we wanted to play with the reds, even though we did desaturate the colors. [...] I knew the movie would have more of a bluish tone to it, and the color of the blood on the uniforms and the ground was a primary concern. Because we were dealing with a World War II drama, the wardrobe was already muted, and since we were shooting in England and Ireland, we had day after day of foggy, rainy climate, which automatically made the light more diffused and the colors more pastel. We therefore compared various levels of ENR, and based on those tests, the special effects department mixed a certain amount of blue into the blood to make it a bit darker than they normally use.” — Janusz Kamiński for American Cinematographer, August 1998

👏🏾👏🏾

That's RIGHT!! PREACH Uncle Tom!! 👏🏾 (Not THAT uncle Tom lol 🤭).

It's such a shame that they don't usually teach us this history in our public schools. Our history is usually so white-washed. Here he is a grown man, and he didn't even know about this part of Black history, because some schools just don't teach it! 😔 Such a shame.

And now, we have a Mentally Ill in Chief who's trying to basically do away with ALL Black history in the school system, and is trying to white wash and rewrite the history written in text books smh. 😒 I swear 🤦🏾‍♀️

This is why READING, going to libraries, and not erasing our history is so IMPORTANT!

Anyway....

Happy Juneteenth y'all!! 👋🏾 😁

Academy Award Winners for Best Cinematography: 2003 — Conrad L. Hall, ASC Road to Perdition (2002) Directed by Sam Mendes Aspect Ratio: 2.35 : 1

Given Sullivan's moral ambiguity, Sam Mendes was keen to keep the audience at a distance from Tom Hanks' character for the first part of the film. He and Hall achieved this through lighting and composition. "Tom is an actor audiences feel they know very well, and I wanted them to have to lean forward to try to penetrate the inner world of the characters, especially his," Mendes says. "So in scene after scene, Tom is either partially obscured or seen through doorways, and he disappears into shadow and then reappears. We always used wide lenses and stayed a distance from him." The paintings of Edward Hopper were a primary reference for the filmmakers. According to Scott Sakamoto [camera operator], "We did a lot of tableau shots, wide shots that let the actors move within the frame, and we didn't move the camera much. Sam lets his actors tell the story within the frame." — American Cinematographer, August 2002
