There is a kind of beauty in imperfection.
Conrad Hall Quotes
It was 100 feet of 16 mm black-and-white film of a car coming to a stop sign, and driving off. I had to decide how to frame and light it. It was magic. There was a sense of mystery.

About
Conrad Lafcadio Hall was born in Papeete, Tahiti, French Polynesia. He was an American cinematographer. For his work he garnered a number of awards, including three Academy Awards and BAFTA Awards. In 2003, Hall was judged to be one of history's ten most influential cinematographers in a survey of the members of the International Cinematographers Guild. He worked on documentaries, in television and minor films, and as a studio camera operator before moving up to cinematographer in major studio films in the mid-1960s. The thirty-year gap between his first two Oscars is a record for this award.
