A tribute to John Alton

[Juke Joint Jonny]

I put together this video tribute to cinematographer John Alton for my film noir class. Hope you like it!

very nice.

low angles showing ceilings and low hanging lights, high angles, venitian blinds, heavy shadows, faces obscured when lit from behind, close-ups of lived-in faces... you could also show just about all of The Amazing Mr. X too...

John Alton was the best! He worked real fast, that's why he did so many B Noirs!

Great tribute. Thanks for posting.
