Unfortunately, unlike the person you mention, I am somebody who grew up in a family where all generations - my grandfather, my father, my mother, my ex - were involved in cinematography, and I narrowly escaped doing it myself, although my own son already followed his grandfather's unhappy path into the depths of film production. As an insider, I have very mixed feelings towards the "Russian cinematography." Oh yes, film production exists all right. Cinematography doesn't. I would like to hope you'd prove me wrong one day.
