My Take

Thaddeus O'Sullivan is exactly my kind of craftsman. A Dubliner who started as a cinematographer before writing and directing, he carries the camera operator's eye into everything he makes, and that shows in the texture of his images. Winning a European Film Academy special jury award tells me he's valued for subtlety rather than flash. I imagine he's at his best capturing the damp, layered light and shadow of Irish landscapes. There's a Taurus-like patience in resisting trends to protect your own visual signature, and I admire artists who quietly trust their own hands over the prevailing fashion.
