Quadros da Semana: Os 100 anos da American Society of Cinematographers
Em comemoração aos seus 100 anos (completados na última terça-feira, 08/01), a Sociedade Americana de Diretores de Fotografia (ASC) selecionou os 100 trabalhos mais importantes da História do Cinema na opinião dos próprios profissionais da área. Se do 11º ao 100º eles optaram por colocar a lista em ordem cronológica (não querendo colocar uns como "melhores" do que outros), os 10 primeiros foram ordenados conforme a prioridade de destacar alguns marcos significativos da cinematografia do século XX (os filmes do século XXI foram deixados de fora sob o pretexto de que os escolhidos já tiveram tempo suficiente para estabelecerem-se e persistirem influentes). Conforme o rolo de fotos (com frames que constam no site oficial deles), segue a lista abaixo com os seus respectivos diretores e diretores de fotografia.
