One of the most sought after cinematographers in Hollywood & twice Oscar-winner, he pioneered use of wide-angle lenses, deep focus, low-key lighting (& invented the crab dolly), helping usher in the style later known as *film noir*.
I loved The Day The Earth Caught Fire (1961)(henceforth TDTECF): end of the world scifi, "journalism procedural" (if that's a thing) with a dollop of the kitchen sink drama realism of late 50s/early 60s UK cinema. 5 starโฆ
