[QUOTE="TedG954, post: 354570, member: 9701"] I just finished watching an old movie "The Stranger". It stars Orson Wells, and more importantly, he directed it too. Wells is a master of Black and White film production (Citizen Kane, etc). [I]The Stranger[/I] is no exception. Watching the film, I envisioned stills rather than the moving picture. Wells' lighting is magnificent and he produces the look I have tried to put into some of my B&W photos. If you ever get a chance to see this movie, or any other Orson Wells directed film, [U]don't miss it[/U]. The sad part is they rarely see prime-time anymore. Here are a few stills from the movie so you get an idea of what I'm talking about. (These are NOT my photos.)
