**Movies with Great Visual Style** 1. Dark City 2. The Matrix 3. The Fifth Element 4. Nosferatu (really, 1922 as well, but I was thinking 1979) 5. The Little Mermaid 6. 12 Angry Men 7. Barry Lyndon 8. Django Unchained 9. O Brother, Where Art Though? It’s hard to choose my favorite Roger Deakins lensed film (Shawshank Redemption , Ladykillers, How to Train Your Dragon) but there’s something beautiful about the burnt landscapes of the Dust Bowl South. ---
