Review of Cameraman: The Life and Work of Jack Cardiff (2010) by Stuart P — 26 Apr 2012
Fascinating insights into the work of a master photographer over a 7 decade career. As is pointed out in the film, you would never imagine the same cinematographer worked on "The Red Shoes" and "Rambo II".
Fortunately for us, Jack Cardiff turns out to be an amiable raconteur as well as a brilliant cameraman - entertaining anecdotes about Humphrey Bogarts kidneys and Kirk Douglas's athletic ability are interspersed with clips from his most accomplished films and wonderfully geeky technical details of how he achieved them.
