75 years old (Born on May 24, 1949)
Happy Birthday, Roger Deakins! Your incredible knack for capturing cinematic beauty has brought so many iconic scenes to life. From the hauntingly vast landscapes in "No Country for Old Men," where you made open fields feel suspenseful—who knew silence could look that intense? To crafting stunning visuals with Sam Mendes on “1917,” pulling off epic one-shot wonders smoother than my grandma's birthday cake icing.You've given us endless masterpieces and collected Oscars—all while somehow maintaining a hairstyle cooler than any Coen Brothers plot twist. Here's hoping your celebration is as visually dazzling (and well-lit) as every film you've blessed our eyes with!
