Vidiots Foundation is proud to present this evening with cinematographer Roger Deakins by showing his latest film Sicario, directed by Denis Villeneuve. Sicario was recently nominated for three Academy Award Nominations including Best Cinematography for Roger Deakins.
In Mexico, SICARIO means hitman. In the lawless area stretching between U.S. and Mexico, an idealistic FBI agent (Emily Blunt) is enlisted by an elite government task force official (Josh Brolin) to aid in the escalating war against drugs. Led by an enigmatic consultant with a questionable past (Benicio Del Toro), the team sets out on a clandestine journey forcing Kate to question everything that she believes in order to survive.
With seventy-eight movies under his belt and an astounding 13 Academy award nominations, Roger Deakins wields his camera with wit and confidence, creating scenes of memorable beauty. Born in England, he attended art college and the National Film School. With a start in documentary, and then features in England, Deakins eventually made his way to America, shooting such films as Skyfall, A Beautiful Mind, The Assassination of Jesse James, and most of the Coen Brothers' pictures, including their next project Hail, Caesar. His next project is the sequel to Blade Runner.
