Description: A new paperback edition of the story of Jack Cardiff's life in films, first as a camerman and then as a director, including his early use of the new Technicolour film camera and recreating his days on the music hall circuit during the 1920s and 30s with anecdotes about his experiences photographing the world's beautiful actresses.
Synopsis: Jack Cardiff tells the story of his life in films, first as a cameraman and then as a director. He was one of the first to use the Technicolor film camera, and the book provides a record of how colour cinematography developed in Britain. He also provides a humorous account of his days on the music-hall circuit during the 1920s and '30s, and anecdotes about his experiences photographing actresses such as Ingrid Bergman, Audrey Hepburn, Ava Gardner, Sophia Loren and Marilyn Monroe.
