These are shots from the Barry Jenkins film "Moonlight." I had never watched this movie because of how mad I was it beat La La Land for best picture at the Oscars in 2017, but after finally watching it I understand the reason it won what it did. The cinematography is unbelievable. James Laxton, the cinematographer for this film, did a great job of utilizing close up shots. This is a similar technique that was mastered in Barry Jenkins other film "If Beale Street Could Talk."

I really enjoyed this movie. I certainly deserved the oscar in my opinion.
