His final film was Road to Perdition in 2002, a second collaboration with Sam Mendes, for which he was posthumously awarded another Academy Award. In total, he won 3 Oscars throughout his 50 year career.
In 2003, American cinematographer Conrad Lafcadio Hall was judged to be one of history's ten most influential cinematographers in a survey of the members of the International Cinematographers Guild. He has been given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Cinematographer Conrad L. Hall took advantage of the environment to create symbolism for the film, for which he won several awards, including a posthumous Academy Award for Best Cinematography.
Only people who saw the movie on big screen would understand there is no competition for Conrad Hall's amazing cinematography that year. Phenomenal work.
There was Great Competition but Conrad Hall had the most innovative Cinematography of all. He deserved the Win and not for sentimental value. He will never be forgotten. He has inspired me to really look into the movie and the story from the photographer's point of view. What a Great Body Of Work. BRILLIANT!!!!
A well deserved (posthumous) victory! And the film is amazing! The great missing in this category that year was Andrew Lesnie for the 2nd Lord of the Rings (awarded for the 1st one the year before, he will be ignored the year after for the last one, for which he won the Bafta).
An Oscar winner for its cinematography, this 1930s set drama stars a two-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks and an Oscar nominated actor, the late Paul Newman!
No disrespect to Hall (his work on Road to Perdition was outstanding), but Far From Heaven should’ve won this. The images from that film have stuck with me more than any of the other nominees.
In order; Tom Hanks, Kevin Spacey, Robin Williams, Warren Beatty, Hillary Swank, (don't know), Geena Davis, Pedro Almodovar, Louise Fletcher, Ron Howard, Carly Simon, Randy Newman, Robert Duvall, Susan Sarandon, Shirley Jones, Isaac Hayes, Michael Douglas, Barbara Kopple, Lili Fini Zanuck, Angelica Huston, Marlee Matlin, Brian Grazer, Stephen Sondheim, John Williams, Robert Wise. That's as far as I can get sorry!
Years later, I would like to say that none of these nominees should have won an Oscar. The winner was to be Tilmar Buettner, who shot the 2002 film "The Russian Ark" in one frame, in one take, in 1 hour, 27 minutes and 12 seconds, without a single editing, passing 35 halls of the Hermitage and 1.3 kilometers.
But is the finished movie one take. I'm not disputing they recorded one full take because I know they did. However there is also three editors credited for the movie and I know the failed takes stopped before the ten minute mark or so. So whilst the majority of the movie is one full take, it's open to debate whether the full movie is one take
this scene is perfect with photography, especially supported by the music of thomas newman. Sam Mendes makes a cameo as a bodyguard during the massacre in the rain.
Road to Perdition is criminally underrated.
The fact Road To Perdition wasn’t even nominated for best picture is a crime!
Guess, the 5 to 10 movies rule should have been applied back then only. But it took The Dark Knight instead of this movie to call for that change.
One of the most beautiful films ever. Every individual scene just perfect, the overall feel & atmosphere unforgettable.
Road to Perdition has great cinematography.
Road of Perdition's score is one of my all-time favourite.
amazing cinematography!!!
His Oscar for Road to Perdition, which is dedicated to Conrad Hall, was posthumously accepted by his son Conrad Wynn Hall, also a cinematographer.
His final film was Road to Perdition in 2002, a second collaboration with Sam Mendes, for which he was posthumously awarded another Academy Award. In total, he won 3 Oscars throughout his 50 year career.

Somber, stately and beautifully mounted, Sam Mendes' Road to Perdition is a well-crafted mob movie that explores the ties between fathers and sons.
Saw Road to Perdition last night and it was amazed by the cinematography. Conrad L. Hall had a gift of the camera
Most deserved win in this category
Personally felt The Pianist deserved more but can't deny the fact that this film had superb Cinematography
Cinematographer Conrad L. Hall took advantage of the environment to create symbolism for the film, for which he won several awards, including a posthumous Academy Award for Best Cinematography.
Yeah we know. You don't have to repeat the same story every single time.

Well Deserved. Perdition had some of the most beautifully shot scenes ive ever seen.
First dc movie to win an Oscar
the cinematography is sooooo great!!
A well deserved (posthumous) victory! And the film is amazing!

Should've won more, amazing film
Dual Screen no, it didn't, should have gone to The Pianist
An Oscar winner for its cinematography, this 1930s set drama stars a two-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks and an Oscar nominated actor, the late Paul Newman!
Paul Newman won an Oscar and yes he was nominated for this film as well.
Road To Perdition is one of the greatest Gangster movies of all time, with great photography too.
Road to Perdition. Not The Road to Perdition.
I was noting to myself that of all the Oscar winners featured only Randy Newman would win another after this ceremony
a son receiving his father's award.
for road to perdition.
No disrespect to Hall (his work on Road to Perdition was outstanding), but Far From Heaven should’ve won this. The images from that film have stuck with me more than any of the other nominees.
At around 5:03, who is the dude after Hilary Swank?
Cliff Robertson
I knew he looked familiar. He was Uncle Ben in the original Spider-Man.
6:33 ''Oscar winners live four and a half years longer than the losers.'' :D That's interesting!
Gangs of New York was really good, but, Road to Perdition killed it. Sorry.
Can anybody name all the actors in the montage? There are a couple of names I don't know.
In order; Tom Hanks, Kevin Spacey, Robin Williams, Warren Beatty, Hillary Swank, (don't know), Geena Davis, Pedro Almodovar, Louise Fletcher, Ron Howard, Carly Simon, Randy Newman, Robert Duvall, Susan Sarandon, Shirley Jones, Isaac Hayes, Michael Douglas, Barbara Kopple, Lili Fini Zanuck, Angelica Huston, Marlee Matlin, Brian Grazer, Stephen Sondheim, John Williams, Robert Wise. That's as far as I can get sorry!
Issac Hayes, Tommy Lee Jones, Kathy Bates
5:36- 5:38. That's where the idea of The Feud arose
Teamsters joke in the first of two Oscar ceremonies where a Martin Scorsese picture would go 0 for 10. How fitting.
Did Steve Martin like what Michael Moore had just said? I guess nooott!!!
Catch me if you can should get nomination
Meh
Should've won Score by Thomas Newman
9
The Two Towers should have nominated
It was nominated.
@@radentstwo9793no it wasn’t nominated
DC Comics wins another one!
Who's the guy in 4:51 5:08 and 5:11 ?
ron howard
Robert Williams

Return of the King should've won and shockingly it wasn't even nominated, WTF!
Wrong year man
@@HAL-vm3wn Still should have won in 2003
@@ClassicalMusic2002 It did won
@@radentstwo9793 Return of the King was neither nominated for Cinematography nor did it win in the category.
@@ClassicalMusic2002 Oh I was mistaken for "Best Picture", didn't realize it. Sorry.
Far From Heaven should've won , it was so robbed that year
Gangs of New York should have won
Kevin Spacey and a Weinstein shout out. That montage has not aged well.
I remember this. Conrad won this Oscar right after his death. While no disrespect to Mr. Hall, it was a sentimental win in my opinion.
Have you SEEN Road to Perdition? Obviously not.
I would have voted for "Far from Heaven" but I don't think it was COMPLETELY a sentimental vote. "Road to Perdition" had great cinematography.
No way. Road to Perdition was by far the best film in this category. Especially for the raining scene.
this scene is perfect with photography, especially supported by the music of thomas newman. Sam Mendes makes a cameo as a bodyguard during the massacre in the rain.
***** what does OP mean?
