Was just about to post an arcticle on this. Also people should check out the documentary Sound City thats been on steady rotation on the Palladia channel. It pretty much the music version of the same problem
So now the folks at Blag Films have put together a four-minute tribute to the Deakins/Coen’s partnership, full of shots that could easily be framed and hung in your swanky bachelor pad. The montage, mostly accentuated by Carter Burwell’s grandiose score from "Fargo," showcases the full range of Deakins’ work: from the gorgeous whites of that same film to the stark black and white contrasts of "The Man Who Wasn’t There."
The use of symmetry and color in the series of wide shots at the beginning of the video prove that Deakins really is one of the greatest DPs of contemporary cinema. If you want to see how important he is to the Coens’ oeuvre, just notice how flat and bland the cinematography is in "Burn After Reading," one of the only Coen Brothers film of the last twenty-three years lacking Deakins' contribution (he also missed out on "Inside Llewyn Davis," but that movie didn't suffer for it).
