  • Uncut Gems (2019 ) https://g.co/kgs/RmuRyxV  Good Time (2017 ) https://g.co/kgs/c9kGFye

  • Key Techniques: Intense close-ups, chaotic handheld shots, neon lighting.

  • Purpose: Creates a claustrophobic and anxiety-inducing atmosphere, mirroring the protagonist’s spiraling chaos. Immerses the viewer in the frantic pace and emotional urgency of the protagonist’s journey.

The Third Man (1949)

  • Key Techniques: Expressionist lighting, sharp shadows, tilted (Dutch) angles.

  • Purpose: Enhances the film’s noir aesthetic and creates a sense of  moral ambiguity.

  • Pulp novelist Holly Martins travels to shadowy, postwar Vienna, only to find himself investigating the mysterious death of an old friend, black-market opportunist Harry Lime—and thus begins this legendary tale of love, deception, and murder. Thanks to brilliant performances by Joseph Cotten, Alida Valli, and Orson Welles; Anton Karas's evocative zither score; Graham Greene’s razor-sharp dialogue; and Robert Krasker’s dramatic use of light and shadow, The Third Man, directed by the inimitable Carol Reed, only grows in stature as the years pass.
