Raiders of the Lost Ark - Steven Soderbergh Cut (2014)

Directed by

Overview

Archeologist and adventurer Indiana Jones is hired by the US government to find the Ark of the Covenant before the Nazis.  I’m assuming the phrase “staging” came out of the theatre world, but it’s equally at home (and useful) in the movie world, since the term (roughly defined) refers to how all the various elements of a given scene or piece are aligned, arranged, and coordinated. In movies the role of editing adds something unique: the opportunity to extend and/or expand a visual (or narrative) idea to the limits of one’s imagination—a crazy idea that works today is tomorrow’s normal…  At some point you will say to yourself or someone THIS LOOKS AMAZING IN BLACK AND WHITE and it’s because Douglas Slocombe shot THE LAVENDER HILL MOB and the THE SERVANT and his stark, high-contrast lighting style was eye-popping regardless of medium.  - See more at: http://extension765.com/sdr/18-raiders#sthash.sHUAtHkw.dpuf
