A star-studded documentary about one of the greatest Oscar winning cinematographers to capture the beauty of such stars as Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn and Sophia Loren in such memorable classics as The African Queen, The Red Shoes, Barefoot Contessa and Black Narcissus. With a career spanning more than 80 years, this passionate documentary reveals the craft of one of the cinema's most indelible image-makers, Jack Cardiff. (texte officiel du distributeur)

An eighty-minute ode to Jack Cardiff, interspersed with nice images. From a documentary devoted to a technical profession and involving figures such as Scorsese and Schoonmaker, I would have expected fewer recollections of who was what kind of person and more glimpses behind the scenes and more piercing analyses of Cardiff’s visual style, especially his work with colour (in this respect, Writing with Light, about the work of Vittorio Storaro, is much more informative). It’s nice and superficial, and a bit touching – ideal for convincing those who perhaps mistakenly believed that someone other than Cardiff was/is the greatest cinematographer of all time.
