If lighting is your thing, look further back in the
movies. One of the best
lit movies I've ever seen is Orson Welle's 'A Touch of
Evil'. The original
60's series of 'The Outer Limits' was also far better
lit than most people
give it credit for. These were all lit using hard
light sources, arguably of
particular relevance to us but most importantly
they're good illustrations
basic lighting technique and because they're hard
light sources it's easy to
see how the lighting is constructed.
One of my favourite modern movies for lighting is Joel
and Ethan Cohen's
'The Man Who Wasn't There'.
Also look to the great stills photographers. Edward
Weston, Art Kane, Brian
Griffin, Snowdon.
