The Nebraska movie cinematography was wonderful. It harkened back to classic movies before color took over. The thing I really like was the time spent "dwelling" on small details and scenes that hard little movement. The whole movie was great-got short changed in the Academy Awards, but that's the way it goes. Interesting that recent years have seen some really good B&W movies including The Artist that was a silent film...
Of course, a really great film needs a really great story and actors....cinematography can only do so much to carry a movie.
