Ari Aster's "sunlight horror" film Midsommar, from 2019, is a polarizing film. But a movie can fail to move some while still remaining technically masterful. Midsommar employs an artful use of its camera to produce an example of some of the most stunning natural light cinematography out there. Today, I want to talk about Aster's use of the long take, and how themes and setting governed his use of light and darkness.
