It doesn't have the epic proportions of Lawrence of Arabia but the following film, Malena, is superbly shot and is full of beauty and sadness.

Two of my all-time favorite movies, No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood, were both filmed in the same place (Marfa, Texas) at the same time. In fact, production for "No Country" was shut down for a day because of an explosion from the TWBB set.

You're welcome Brian. I'll throw in one more beautiful film if I may.

The story within the story portrayed in The Fall has some of the most beautiful scenes ever shot.

Please check it out if you haven't already seen it Brian. Everything you portray in your postings here make me believe that you will enjoy this film.

Looks quite good but the lead actor playing Mark E Smith looks nothing like him.

For the Girl With the Dragon Tatoo, I hope you mean the version with Noomi Rapace. They re did the 1st one with Daniel Craig as Blomqvist and it was dreadful. Too much money on the big name, so he became the centrepiece, not Salander

Pretty much anything by Kubrick.

For my sins I only just got round to watching Paths of Glory the other night - another amazing film he made.

The many War films I like but one not mentioned as much as it should be is Leone's 'Once Upon A Time In America.'

A masterpiece with a soundtrack to match.

Of course. Not strictly a film - I think it was done for TV originally. Saw the whole thing online and the was scenes not in the three films.

Probably the most beautiful looking film I've seen.


I watched this at the Prince Charles Cinema a few years ago. Watching films like this on the big screen adds a whole other dimension to the experience. It might seem like an obvious point, but as more and more film is consumed on smaller screens so much of the cinematography is lost. I actually went through a period of visiting the PPC semi regularly to watch the old classics. Wonderful experience.
