Cinematographer Lawrence Sher's dramatic lensing of Joker, Todd Phillips' psychological thriller about the origin of the DC Comics villain, claimed the Golden Frog in the main competition at the EnergaCamerimage festival
"Knowing that the movie was first and foremost a character study — and one of the reasons that I was really keen on shooting with this larger format — was the way it allows you to shoot closer, really intimate proximity to the actors, which I think psychologically is subconscious but it really matters to an audience. ...When you have somebody performing at the level that [Joaquin Phoenix] is performing, you want to be close. You want to see the nuances.
Quentin Tarantino and Robert Richardson received the Camerimage cinematographer-director duo award, as theiruring the ceremony, cinematographer and past Motion Picture Academy president John Bailey received the festival's Lifetime Achievement Award. Additional honorees included Edward Norton, who received the Krzysztof Kieslowski Award; Lech Majewski, special directing award; Jan Roelfs, award to a production designer; and Richard Gere, special award to an actor.
During the festival's Nov. 9 opening ceremony, Camerimage recognized the American Society of Cinematographers for its 100th anniversary; as well as Peter Greenaway with a lifetime achievement award in directing; Danny De Vito, lifetime achievement award for acting; Ewa Dalkowska, award for a Polish actress; and Helena Trestikova, outstanding achievement in documentary filmmaking.
This year, the Polish festival, now in its 27th installment, returned to the city of Torun, which hosted the first seven editions of Camerimage. Representing an expected investment of roughly $1.55 million, the city, state, and Camerimage are planning to construct a new institution — a European Film Center Camerimage — which would host future festivals and other events in Torun.
