“Duggie” as he is affectionately known |
Douglas Slocombe Turns 100
One of cinema’s great cinematographers turned 100 years old on Sunday, February 10th. His name is Douglas Slocombe or "Duggie" as he is affectionately known. When you see his filmography you can see why he is so respected in Hollywood and the rest of the world.Indiana Jones just wouldn't have been the same without Duggie. Whether its seeing the shadows bouncing off Indy's face or the silhouette of our hero with a blazing sunset in the background you can see why Spielberg called him back for all the Indy movies and even the fourth one cinematographer Janusz Kaminski made sure the feel of Douglas Slocombe was maintained.
Below you can check out his Filmography, a video documentary on Douglas Slocombe and his career in pictures.
