What's fascinates me so much about Amélie's lighting is that the film looks so warm and inviting, yet literally all scenes are tinted in green. Obviously a lot of grading work as well, but how he push the boundaries or colour/light expression and them around is quite amazing; when you look at it, he's effectively doing the opposite of what cinematographer would instinctively do given the different scripts... a green ambience in a warm and cozy film; extremely soft light in a very brutal and dark one, and so on. I love this so much.
Thank you, Fandor, for this beautiful, articulated of a video essay of probably my favorite DOP(along with Lubezski, and the great Roger Deakins) of the current filmdom. I specially dig his soft, diffused, glowing look to each of the films that he's involved in. And also the choices of his color palette. If I were to be a cinmatographer, Mr Delbonnel's work would be my Bible, my go-to style reference; no, I wouldn't copy him, but would definitely be very much influenced by his work. Absolutely love his style. Always.
You get attracted to many films due to their starcast or the director. I wanted to watch Amelie and Inside Llewyn Davis majorly because of Bruno Delbonnel's cinematography. Great video, Fandor!
Funny how looking at one "reaction" vid about Amélie where the person made the link with how the movie was portraying the inner life of its protagonists throught the little things, I was reminded of Kieslovsky who was doing exactly the same. And here, the person is doing the link throught cinematography and the use of similar colors in both "Amélie" and one of my favorite movies ever, "The Double Life of Véronique". And yet, both movies have such different atmospheres and - most importantly - tones, that I had never made the link myself.
Guys your channel is awesome I learn new things with each one of your videos and discover new facts about my favourite movies. Keep going and kisses from a fan of Spain! ♥️
Thank you Fandor. I think that's a unique thing. That's an artist hard at work...... But, I also think it makes it that much more difficult for the artist to .make.....
A true artist ,some movies i see becuase of their plot ,director,cast but definetively i do see some just based on who the cinematographer in that project was ,so is the case in any of Bruno Delbonnel movies.
Ayy big up, im the first one here! nows my time to say to fandor how much i enjoy your videos, the pace your making them suggests that you are an 8 armed alien that doesnt sleep, if so, you may like my channel, Much appreciated
The best cinematographer after Kaminski in my opinion. :) Many, if not the most would say that Deakins is the best cinematographer ever, but much of his camera work feels staged. It feels like the camera is filming instead as if the audience is observing. 1917 is for one a masterful example of "audience observing" camera movement, but most of his movies are not like that. That's why I give Kaminski the title as the best cinematographer ever. Not just how he sets his camera, but also his unique way of lighting and different approach to different movies. It seems to me that Delbonnel has the same thinking like Kaminski.

*Inside Llewyn Davis because of *Bruno Delbonnel
@@ashmitpattnayak8060 Jesus Christ I don't know why I even typed Davis. wth
Finally a video that talked about his work on Harry Potter. Half Blood Prince is incredible!
neat, never knew there was a connection between Amelie and Harry Potter.

"The Ballad of Buster Scruggs" was impressive too.
That's his too?
@@ricimercury9490 Yes, since Amélie he works with Jeunet whenever available :)
This channel is criminally underrated
Can't believe I only found out about this guy through harry potter, that movie was GORGEOUS! I'm doing research on his other movies now.
Can't wait to see this channel go viral, this I great

Thank you Fandor. I think that's a unique thing. That's an artist hard at work...... But, I also think it makes it that much more difficult for the artist to .make.....
Do one on Roger Deakins or Seamus McGarvey. I’ve had the honor of chatting with both over the internet.
Thanks a lot! Great Video.

Love ur content keep it up
A true artist ,some movies i see becuase of their plot ,director,cast but definetively i do see some just based on who the cinematographer in that project was ,so is the case in any of Bruno Delbonnel movies.
A+
Slawomir Idziak is so underrated
Really want to see more from him. Loved what he did with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
Just as Fandor videos were starting to bum me out...this was great.
Darius Khondji next please
This guy should do sci-fi
Like Roger Deakins did
3:04 Like Neil DeGrasse Tyson? He would make sense in a movie of that title.
subtitles please
