  • I know it would be difficult to make this a regular series; but, I would love it if directors like Scorsese and Spielberg also told us what their favorite shots are in their films

    What i’m getting from this is ridley scott is a master at placing characters inside spaces and making the world tell the story

    Ridley doesn't play the game of going against CGI like others have been doing the past couple of years. Instead he says it is a tool and doesn't downplay its importance. As a vfx artist, this comment is a breath of fresh air.

    Full respect to the guy, he's made hugely different movies, and produced some modern classics which will be highly regarded after many of us are no longer here. He never shoots dull. Even in his lesser regarded films, there are always shots in there which catch your eye because they're beautiful.

    Re-watched Blade Runner again this week and apart from being reminded of what a beautiful mood piece it is, the cinematography throughout is just amazing, so many iconic shots.

    Ridley Scott is a true master film maker

    This 85 year-old man accomplishes more in one year than most of us do in a lifetime, and he's been doing it for decades like clockwork. A powerhouse still going strong. RESPECT.

    Nobody does sheer scale like Ridley Scott. You can tell at the end when he’s talking about The Searchers that it’s always been important to him and one of the best aspects of his films.

    The sequence in Alien of Ripley running through the corridors after setting the Nostromo to self-destruct, and then running back to disarm it, only to run again back to the shuttle is one of my favorites in all cinema. It's insane how damn good it looks, the cinematography is just sublime. As for single shot? When she's coming up the ladder towards the end and the camera is zoomed in on her fingernails, and then she slowly pops her head over the edge with a look of abject terror. So good.
  • My favorite shot from alien is the close up of Ripley's hand when shes climbing up out of the ladder. Beautiful focus switch from her sweaty hand to her sweaty face as she slowly peers up from the floor below. All the lights from the alarm system casting an array of glorious color.. A++ shot!! That entire scene when she overloads the reactor/escapes the nostromo is all gorgeous.

    Ridley Scott; what a legend!
  • Wow, he looks so lively for his age. It only goes to show that his work is his life.

    That opening of Gladiator for me at least was the most emotionally impactful. It set the tone for the rest of the movie. But as movies go, Black Hawk Down just blows the mind in terms of how they filmed it.
  • Ridley Scott is one of the greatest modern filmmakers! A real legend. So many iconic films.
  • When it comes to historical films, Ridley Scott doesn't mess about. Visually, from the sets, costumes, special effects, hair and makeup and the battles are all award worthy. 1492 - Conquest of Paradise, Kingdom of Heaven, Gladiator, The Last Duel, Robin Hood, Exodus - Gods and Kings and The Duellists. Just amazing.
