Broken Blossoms (1919)

A silent film with Lillian Gish and Richard Barthelmess, two of my favorite silent film stars.

At Play in the Fields of the Lord - beautiful cinematography of the Brazilian rainforest

The Breakfast Club - Molly Ringwald does her makeup with her boobies. What could be more beautiful than that?

the taste of tea- its a Japanese movie, kind of felt like the Japan version of "Little Miss Sunshine" although it might have came out before LMS.

I also just saw Wristcutters: A love story, thought it was beautiful. Much different than the fall though. It has Tom Waits acting in it...thats just cool.

What's that guy's name? The one who does the music for Koyaanisqatsi?

Anyway, I saw it an it's sequel (there are two or three I believe). Beautiful camera work and good ideas, but the music was terrible! Maybe if I was sentient in the 80's I wouldn't think so but now... terrible!

Yes. Him + synthesizer = worse than sticking a funnel in a cat's mouth and making like it's a bagpipe.

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon (which precedes both House of Flying Daggers and Curse of the Golden Flower)
Saving Private Ryan
Wedding Crashers (no, really - for just a romantic comedy there was a LOT of thought put into cinematography)
The Godfather

Are you talking about photography or cinematogrophy?

Of the top of my head, for dazzling photography check out:

The Cell
Punch-Drunk Love
Any Terrence Malick movie (someone already mentioned 'The Thin Red Line')
Vanilla Sky
Marie Antoinette
The Fountain (also already mentioned- really underrated flick)

Um... damn, my mind's gone blank. There are many more gorgeous movies I'm forgetting.

What is the difference?

I am guessing photography since all the ones you mentioned fit the bill.
