For new movies, the cinematography in "A Very Long Engagement" is gorgeous. It's by the same director and dp from "Amelie" which was also visually stunning in my opinion.

Have you seen his previous films?

If not, watch The City Of the Lost Children.
Delicatessen is very good to, many say it's one of his best, but I think The City Of the Lost Children is many times better, but that's personal taste.

However, it is different from Amelie and A very Long engagement, it's much weirder and darker, and the storylines are much more inventive (not to say his later movies are bad, no, I absolutely loved them, more inventive isn't always better offcourse)

The title sequence to "Bonfire of the Vanities"!

Also the opening of "The Producers".

I have seen City of the Lost Children...it was definitely dark and a little odd...I haven't seen it in a while, so I'll have to watch it again. I didn't know it was made by the same director. I've never heard of or seen Delicatessan...is it good?
