    Great list... Thanks. Here are a couple of notworthy choices imo:
    - Terrence Malik's movies have some nice handheld and wide angle cinematography... In particular Song to Song (2017) and Tree of Life (2011). Immersive in the sense that it puts you inside the drama
    - Blade Runner (1982)... Lots of heavily stylised mood and atmosphere
    - The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007)... Stunning movie, shot by Roger Deakins. Some stylised visuals for dramatic scenes, but then naturalistic lighting for most of the rest of the movie, but somehow seamless transitions between the two
    - The Good Shepard (2006)... Lots of moody/darker compositions fitting with the spy theme. Silhouettes, chiaroscuro, half hidden faces/eyes, but done in a way that draws you inside to the movie
    - There Will Be Blood (2007)... Excellent lighting and compositions, as well as how the shots move from one compositions to another as they did with classic movies instead of being wide, over the shoulder and then close ups... Very cinematic and helps with immersion.
    I'll post a separate list of older movies later... Some great cinematography in the black and white days...

    Great picks man! Emmanuel Lubezki and Roger Deakins are two of my favorite cinematographers atm. But there are definitely so much more talented DOPs out there. Gonna look up the one from Macbeth and The King too. Didn't realise they were shot by the same person.

    I bought the Blu-ray of Macbeth solely based on this video. After movies like EX Machina, Arrival, Blade Runner 2049 or even Prometheus I gained such an appreciation for Cinematography, that sometimes, when I watch a movie the second time or more, I ignore the plot and just look at and analyze the colors, lighting, contrasts, camera angles or color palette.
