When one says "great cinematography," beautiful landscapes, tight close-ups, perfectly balanced colors, and Days of Heaven come to mind.
1978's Days of Heaven, which featured a young Richard Gere, was directed by Terrence Malick. It's a love triangle set in early 20th century America.
The film is notable for its better-than-brilliant cinematography, which was mostly shot by Nestor Almendros. Days of Heaven is a visual magnificence.
The film's iconic "locust attack" sequence.
A wheat grass during spring.
A close-up of the fierce creature.
Yummy red wine.
I love how this shot captured the lines on the actor's face.
The Farmer's house.
I feel like I'm looking at moving paintings whenever I see these shots.
