    Although I'm a huge Tarantino fan. I have to say that Deakins is way more logical and "liberal" on the subject -although I prefer film too. It depends on the project and you want to make out. Digital is sharper and more clean, easier to use, has better dynamic range etc. While film is more "dirty" and closer to the human eye. Deakins understands that every director/D.O.R. have different opinions on the art, while Tarantino only sees things black and white.

    How great it would be if there was a "sequel" to Visions of Light, with the new generation of DPs, or perhaps re-editing a longer version of the film to include the 8 or 10 great DPs active now that were not in the original version. Considering the first ¼ of the film was introducing the audience to the invention of filmmaking, adding 8 or 10 new people would increase its time by maybe 90 to 120 minutes max, making it essentially into a 3 to 3½ hour movie. A fascinating movie that would be the ultimate film photography masterclass for anyone.

    QT hate for digital is absurd. Most of his shot in 35 mm is converted to digital composites. Then transferred back. So QT your damn movie has a ton of digital elements to it. And u don’t see what u get. With film. And loading mags. And only 10 min of film vs 60 min of digital where u can do long takes. Not call cut. Actors can reset faster with digital. I have 100 more. And I challenge you QT to tell the difference. QT you make good movies however your hate for digital is absurd.

    It always surprises me how rigidly conservative and traditionalist some directors can be. The only thing that matters is the visceral and emotional impact that the work has on an audience. The process or technology to get there is unimportant, nor the method of projection. I’m sure there were objections from silent directors to the inclusion of sound, and objections to color from those accustomed to black and white. And of course there are hoards who decry CGI in favor of practical fx. All technological advancements are only more tools for the toolbox. If the audience digs the end result, who cares what the methods were to get there. I love Tarantino but on this matter he sounds like a crotchety old geezer.

    Everyone is missing the point, they’re both right. But Deakins is over simplifying the philosophy: it is what is in the frame that counts. But you could say that about AI generated movies. Which someone typing a concept into a prompt would be the death of cinema as Deakins knows it. It’s no different than the argument of digital music versus vinyl. The majority of people prefer the convenience of digital music, where as a lot of people realize you’ve removed the activity of putting on an album and actively listening to it. The EASE of creation and distribution has made it far more disposable. And our brains react more positively to film and vinyl. This is a great super cut, but Robert Rodriguez shoots a LOT on digital and he’s one of Tarantino’s best friends. Tarantino has stated that if you’re using it to do something film can’t, then it’s acceptable. And I think his support of new filmmakers using digital is pretty generous. Deakins just sees it as a tool, a means to an end. They’re both right.

    tarantino is right unfortunately , but most of you are unable to grasp. The best movies ever made were before digital, and the last good movies came out in the late 90s early 2000s (the matrix, spiderman, lord of the rings, the dark knight, gladiator, pirates of the carribean, fight club etc.), which are all shot on film. If you'd put the best digital movies and the amount of good digital movies in comparison to the best film movies and the amount of good film movies, there would be no fkng contest. And look at the last 10 years, hollywood has been a fkn joke. You guys just agree with digital because you don't want to go back to the difficulties that film brings with it, and the work you have to put in to master this craft. The same with music, there is no modern artist or record out there (last 20 years) that could stand a chance against the artists and records from the 50s, 60s till the 2000s. The same with video games and consoles, and i could go on with so much more sht, all that glitters is not gold, our technology is more illusion than reality. Face it, the golden age of entertainment has died long ago, and now we see the result of it.

    Ummm… this is a really dumb argument. I’ve been a photographer for nearly 30 years and what I’ve learned is that people that bitch about their tools don’t actually have anything interesting to say with their work and need an excuse. Nobody cares if you shoot on film or digital-only that you GET IT RIGHT!! Saying that a movie like Blade Runner 2049 “doesn’t look good enough because it was shot digitally” is f*cking RIDICULOUS.

    They are both right. Each filmmaker has a vision and whether the tools and the medium are parts of that vision is up to the filmmaker. For Tarantino cinema is an experience, it's not just what's inside the frame, it's what's outside too. It's not just how he shoots it's how you watch and that is part of his artistic vision.
