Camera Movement

"Heaven" - Directed by Tom Tykwer, cinematography by Frank Griebe
I haven't actually scene this movie, just bits and pieces, but some of this stuff is pretty incredible. I've never seen aerial photography like this.
1:25 - 2:15, 5:55, 7:07-7:40ish, 9:44-10:30ish



"Children of Men" - Directed by Alfonso Cuaron, cinematography Emmanuel Lubezki

Sorry I can't find the actual clips in their entirety online, but if you haven't seen the movie you definitely should.

"He wanted to do it (a six minute plus take involving explosion, tons of extras, intense choreography, and closing down a London street) all in one shot, kind of in a documentary fashion, and he said, ya know, 'can we do it? can we try this?'...and I said, 'yeah, we can. it's a tricky job to do'" - Emmanuel Lubezki, great quote


"Taxi Driver" - Directed by Martin Scorcese, cinematography by Michael Chapman
Watch 6:10- 7:40. As Travis Bickle is rejected on the telephone by the girl he's been seeing, the camera trucks across the hallway and rests on the view of the long, dingy, empty corridor. It's a really effective, motivated move that deepens the scene.



"Raising Arizona" - directed by the Coen Brothers, cinematography by Barry Sonnenfield
A movie from their pre-Deakins era. I actually don't really care that much for the cinematography of Sonnenfield in the early Coen films. He does a lot of crazy wide-angle, speed dollies that feel more like something out of Sam Raimi's "The Evil Dead" trilogy (Raimi, who is good friends with the Coens, gave Joel Coen  his start as the editor for the first "Evil Dead" film, maybe that's the connection) but damn, this scene is awesome. The goofiness of "Raising Arizona" fits perfectly.
