20 Best Handheld Camera Movies of All Time According to the Cinemaholic

"Motion pictures are perhaps the most visceral and tangible form of translating words into emotions. A director perversely and continually strives to percolate a sense of realism and his vision to the audience. This permeation of his feelings and vision of the script is facilitated through the camera. And the most authentic and engaging style today, is the shaky camera, or a handheld camera technique. Purposely dispensing with stable image techniques is a way to emancipate the audience of the 70mm celluloid the pictures are encapsulated in. It suggests unprepared, unrehearsed filming of reality, and can provide a sense of dynamics, immersion, instability or nervousness. We decide to pay homage to those courageous and pioneering individuals, who dared to go against the norm and implicate this technique in their films. Here's the list of top handheld films ever." - thecinemaholic.com
