And How Beautiful

“One stunning image outdoes another in the hurtling, circling, swooping cinematography of Ben Seresin, a New Zealander whose palette is restrained but never suppressed,” the Wall Street Journal’s Joe Morgenstern writes in a review of the film Unstoppable, starring Denzel Washington. The imagery as a whole evokes the railroad photography of the 193s and 194s, even though the story is set in the present, or Margaret Bourke-White’s industrial photos for Life magazine.” Seresin was the director of photography for the 29 film Transformers. He was also the recipient of the 26 Kodak AICP Award for Adidas advertisement “Gimme the Ball”.
