| The climactic scene in King Kong (1976) proved to be a tricky lighting job. To capture a bird’s-eye view of the action, the cinematographer operated a camera precariously positioned atop one of the World Trade Center’s towers. “I was in a harness, of course, and there were clouds passing below me!” he recalls. “The whole picture was big, dynamic and complicated in a good way. Dino De Laurentiis was one of my favorite producers.” | ||
