It certainly is an interesting combination of great actors. I could very easily be mistaken, but I can't recall any of these actors working with each other before.
It probably won't be for this film, but Deakins has to win an Oscar someday. They simply can't throw him that Lifetime Achievement Award that isn't even televised anymore. He's one of those few guys that delivers quality work everytime, and none of his nominations feel unjustified.
Who would you like to see be the main villain in the next Batman film?

Up in the Air set a high bar for dealing with corporate downsizing, but this is an impressive cast, so we'll see...

ReplyDelete-Robbie
I'd have to do a little searching, but I think you're right.

ReplyDeleteSorry for the Deakins rant.
Agreed, he's bound to win one day...
ReplyDeleteDon't apologize for making a Deakins rant. I mean, it's a crime that he didn't win for "Jesse James" alone...
ReplyDeleteOne day there will be a weak year for cinematography where he does his usual work and they'll reward him then, if I had to guess...
ReplyDeleteI just watched the teaser, and I'm already anticipating this film.
ReplyDeleteIt's really a very interesting cast, and I hope that it ends up creating a wonderful product.
We'll know when it screens at Sundance...
