This week, from Tuesday till Saturday, March 26 – 30, 2019, Kinoteka Cinema in Zagreb shows great movies from the Robby Müller (1940 – 2018) opus, a Dutch director of photography, who has made a strong contribution to the aesthetics of some of the most important film authors of today.
Müller is best known for his work on Wim Wenders movies, and a film Paris, Texas is considered to be the top of their 25-year cooperation. The Paris, Texas ,where Müller’s innovative recording techniques and mastery of natural light can be best seen, explains why many compare him with Vermeer and Caravaggio.
