The folks at
Movieline got their hands on a list of the top 50 films of the decade, from a cinematography standpoint, as laid out by voters at American Cinematographer magazine. Topping the list: Bruno Delbonnel’s work on “
Amelie.” Delbonnel is a favorite among DPs. After all, “
A Very Long Engagement” won him the ASC honor in 2004 and he received his third Oscar nomination of the decade for last year’s “
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.” But it’s still a surprising call.

Another delightfully unexpected pick is Jeff Cronenweth’s lensing of “
Fight Club,” but John Toll’s thematically potent work on “
The Thin Red Line” go unrecognized in the top 10 and shows up at #17. I’d also say Roger Deakins (one of my personal favorites), though at his usual top notch on “
No Country for Old Men,” probably should have seen top 10 representation for “
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford” instead. His work on the western just misses at #11.
