The 6th Hall Of Fame Inductee For Contribution To Cinematography - Sven Nykvist



Ingmar Bergman’s go-to cinematographer on nearly every film from 1960’s The Virgin Spring onwards. Nykvist was a minimalist shooter who let the image speak for itself, contributing to the films he worked on (including The Unbearable Lightness Of Being, Crimes And Misdemeanours and Chaplin) a naturalistic look. A wise, masterful cameraman indeed.
