| Douglas Slocombe |
On February 22, 2016, legendary cinematographer Douglas Slocombe died at the age of 103 in London, England following complications from a fall. Over the course of 40 years, he participated in making dozens of films ranging from comedies by the Ealing Studio to his final works with Steven Spielberg on the first three Indiana Jones films. What he leaves behind is an impressive body of work that challenged the visual appearance of film and made it into something far more beautiful. While his eyesight diminished following complications in the 80's, he continued to be an active and lively speaker until his death, proving just how passionate and dedicated to film he truly was.
