And an incredible long career according to the IMDB: Starting as as Actor in 1918 (born in 1914), his last project was a TV mini series in 2007. A life in pictures indeed.

R.I.P. Great cinematographer. I think I'll have to watch The Dogs of War tonight, or maybe Girl on a Motorcycle or the Long Ships...

R.I.P.

He also directed quite a few things, including the underrated The Freakmaker

Yes, I've seen this movie, my brother owns a copy... very good... with an equally weird Tom Baker.

He shows up in some of the oddest places too---just the other night I reviewed the American in Paris Blu-ray, and in the extras there's a travelogue of Paris circa 1937---shot by Jack Cardiff!
