Interesting article about cinematography and movie visuals

"Every Frame a painting"
I'm paraphrasing but I have heard this mantra iterated and reiterated in just about every film class or film study class I have ever taken. Kurosawa did it, Kubrick did it, and Hitchcock DEFINITELY DID IT. Lately I have become a big fan of my Boy Nicolas Winding Refn doing it... but I digress....
I stumbled on a few article pertaining to the subject and if you fancy yourself a film connoisseur like myself, you may enjoy this....although if youre a film buff chances are you already knows about this (cough cough... CITIZEN KAIN, Battle Potemkin.....) either way.... enjoy (I love any mentions of Akira Kurosawa because he is my favorite director of all time son)

1st up...... STANLEY KUBRICK 
(after a brief aside about Akira Kurosawa....)

If you don't know about it him...you should. His films are marvelous and his influence is heavy in american pop culcture..... from A bugs life, to Star Wars, to Eastwood Trilogies, and even a hint of that Ghost Dog http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akira_Kurosawa

Random thought: Happy Birthday Stanley Kubrick!

Just found out about the Stanley Kubrick Documentary "Stanley Kubrick's Boxes" because of an article I read. Happy Birthday Stanley you dead motherf$&#er. That may have sounded cold but not really, I admire this guy but he IS dead sorry to burst that bubble. If he wasn't though he'd be 85 and also making bombass movies and saving hollywood's asses. Also maybe faking some MARS landings...who knows!

ANYWAYS 2 THINGS!

1. Read this awesome article about Stanley Kubrick's mystery jacket (for you)

2. Don't forget to watch Stanley Kubrick's Boxes (for me)
