Which films in your opinion have the best cinematography?
 
Skyfall.

The cinematography was so good it was almost distractingly beautiful. Like every frame could have been a computer wallpaper.

Lawrence of Arabia! Breathtakingly beautiful. That long shot of Sherif Ali's introduction is maybe the best single shot in cinema history.

I prefer Lean's "Bridge on the River Kwai", but both are glorious to look at.
