THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CELLULOID IMAGE OF THE DECADE!



For my money, this shot from THE DARK KNIGHT is the most beautiful, epic, poetic shot committed to celluloid of the decade (2000-2010). People will think I'm crazy but I stand by this image. It's a knockout. It's perfect: the lighting, the composition, the atmosphere, all perfection. Batman standing, head bowed in shattering sadness, on a pile of rubble. His life irreccovably in ruins. The symbolism of what happened in New York at the top of the decade and ultimately what's happening to America now is both powerful and evocative.

Your Friend,
