Cosmopolis was shot entirely with a 21mm lens.
Call me By Your Name was shot entirely with a Cooke 35mm lens.
Bottle Rocket was shot with a 27mm. And I think Tenenbaums solely with a 40mm.
Pretty sure like all of The Wrestler except for one or two shots used a 12mm lens on a Super16 camera. And Roger used a 40mm lens for 99% of 1917 besides a few interiors where he went a bit wider IIRC.
This brings up another question which maybe you can answer.
I know many digital cameras have problems with blue light clipping too easily. My plan was to use daylight balanced LEDs and gel them blue. Would that avoid the issue?
If I may, I’m noticing a real issue with the headroom of your subjects. In some shots it feels as though it’s been carelessly cropped in on almost like a pan-and-scan you see in some old movies. Many have the heads of people cut off either too close to the top of their head or right in the middle of their forehead.
I think you might (everyone does) benefit from taking a look at some classical paintings and photography to hone your compositions. Lighting and camera quality can only take you so far if you can’t also construct powerful frames.
Good luck!
