Prepare to dive deep into your new favorite Twitter account. Geoff Todd’s @OnePerfectShot features a single, PERFECT image from hundreds of classic (and not so classic) flicks.
I love this sort of obsessive film geekery so much.
According to account’s description:
My mission is to honor cinema’s past and (hopefully) inspire a new generation of perfect shots. Enjoy the ride!
What’s wonderful about the images that Todd has chosen is, when isolated, some illustrate just how gifted many directors and cinematographers truly are, despite the quality of films from which the stills were taken. I chose some of my faves below, but I recommend you head over to @OnePerfectShot and dig through the images yourself. You won’t be sorry.
