The story is nothing. Everything was made to make the movie look like it was one shot. So because of this everything else was sacreficed. Sadly..

But the point is that, why on Earth do you think the DP has anything to do with this?????? The cinematography was nothing. A guy was following the actors and that's all. There was one shot that looked amazing. The rest was nothing.

What you saw, how they recorded the whole thing was made by the director. It's not cinematography. You're terribly mistaken.

The cinematography is (in very basics), the angles, the way the camera moves (I said basics!). None of it was special at any point of the movie!

Making it look like it was one shot was done by the director and not the DP.

The director deserves an Oscar for making this movie. No doubt about that. BUT the movies and it's creators deserve no awards.

Every other nominated movie ever in this theme was better in every aspect! Almost every nominated movie is better than this one.

Just because you can't see, it doesn't make it better.
