Sin City (2005) dir. Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez

Sin City is a adaptation of the comic books of Frank Miller (who also co directed). From the very start of the project the film was intended to be a translation of the source material. This is quickly evident throughout the film where the shot composition is directly taken from panels of the comics. This is interesting because the shooting was filmed entirely using digital backdrops allowing the atmosphere and style that the original writer foresaw to remain intact.

I believe that this film should be put into our little vault because of the tireless consideration to remain true to the original works. As well as this Sin City also pushed the boundaries of what could be possible with digital filmmaking in the future and for this reason should also be commended.
