I was talking in another forum about the most interesting camera angles and movements and wanted to open here to get opinions on the most creative cinematography you have ever seen. I believe that the creativity of others can inspire your own creativity so here we go.

Here are some of my favorites. In case you could not tell, I am obsessed with tracking shots. I love all kinds of shots but some are hard to find and you tube has a good collection of tracking shots:

Check out some of Godard's work. In Masculine/Feminine there's a dolly shot inside a restaurant that includes events inside and out and is 360+.
 
I have actually seen what scene you are referring to and that is a great one as well. There are too many to list.

If you can find clips of the shots you are talking about, feel free to post them as well.

Nuff said. Gilliam is the master of the wide angle shot. There is no one better at it in my opinion. The 14mm prime is know as the "Gilliam" in cinematography circles.
