A legendary cinematographer believes that The Batman It deserved the Oscar but since it’s a superhero movie, they didn’t even consider it.
Roger Deakins has worked in movies as good as Life imprisonment (1994), Fargo (1996), Heavy rain (2012), Blade Runner 2049 (2017) y 1917 (2019). For the last two, she won the Oscar for Best Cinematography. In addition, this year he has been nominated for The Empire of Light (2022).
Now, in a recent interview with DL, he has revealed his opinion on The Batman of Matt Reevesfilm in which he has not participated.
“The film with the best cinematography of 2022 is The Batman. That’s the best job in my opinion. Greig Fraser’s extraordinary work should have been nominated. But the reason it didn’t is pure and simple: snobbery. There’s this unfair tendency to avoid the Marvel universe and the other popular universes.”
“Also, Claudio Miranda, the director of photography on Top Gun: Maverick is another one who was left out… It all comes down to work. A good job is a good job whatever the genre.” He said Roger Deakins.
You have to remember that The Batman has not been nominated for Best Photographybut at least he’s been nominated for Better Sound, Better Visual Effects y Best makeup and hairstyling. While Top Gun: Maverick has won better sound.
The Batman 2 might get another go.
The 2022 film was a smash hit grossing over $770 million worldwide. Besides, James Gunnthe new head of DC Comicsrevealed that they will The Batman 2so if they keep the same team, he could be eligible for an Oscar in a few years.
While the award for Best Photography this year has gone to James Friend for No news at the front. The other nominees were Darius Khondji for Bardo, false chronicle of a few truthsMandy Walker por ElvisRoger Deakins por The Empire of Light and Florian Hoffmeister for LIBRARY.
