Herman Yau to Direct James Wong Howe Biopic 'The Cinematographer'

Hong Kong director Herman Yau is attached to helm 'The Cinematographer,' a biopic on pioneering Oscar-winning cinematographer James Wong Howe.

Variety
Born this day in 1899 one of the great cinematographers James Wong Howe. Howe worked on over 130 films. Master of shadows, known for low key lighting. For my money his defining films are; "The Criminal Code", "Shanghai Express", "The Thin Man", "Body and Soul", "The Rose Tattoo", "Picnic", "Sweet Smell of Success", "The Old Man and the Sea", "Hud", "Seconds", "Hombre", "The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter", & "The Molly Maguires".

I watched Seconds for the first time last night. Rock Hudson turns in a brilliant performance in a deeply unsettling movie with excellent cinematography by James Wong Howe.

Because of the debilitating man flu, I’m hardly playing on PlayStation at the moment and watching more movies, such as the second best from 1966: #JohnFrankenheimer’s #Seconds, an existentialist, grim, shocking interpretation of Faust. Extra mention of cinematographer, because extraordinary awesomeness: #JamesWongHowe. — #CineMastodon #FilmMastodon

Seconds (#JohnFrankenheimer, 1966)

At a bacchanalia, #RockHudson's Antiochus Wilson finally strips down his hesitancy and realises he has a second chance at life, as a member of the new generation. To the Queen of #wine! To Bacchus! To Pan!
