Arnold

Jack Cardiff

Recommended Posts

Veteran cinematographer who will be 92 next September. His career goes back to the silent days. He even worked on the lond lost 1931 version of The Ghost Train, staring Jack Hulbert. A true ancient relic from a long vanished era. His son has been charged with paedophilia for the umpteenth time so he could do a Ronnie Barker?

Probably guaranteed an obit in the qualities, depite most of the population not having a clue who he is (and I include myself.)

Jack Cardiff recieved a special Oscar a couple of years back, a sign that some are expecting his demise.

I'm v well thanks. Glad to see the spam is dying down a bit. Does the laconic Grim Reaper still post too?

As Arnold is in town, I thought I'd revive another of his threads. I saw Jack Cardiff on TV the other night and he looked extremely frail. His face looked a bit like a death mask. I'd be amazed if he lives to see 2009.

Wikipedia say that Jack Cardiff has died. No other confirmation yet.
