R.I.P.

László Kovács - cinematographer - 1933-2007. In addition to the footage of the Russian suppression of the Hungarian Revolt that he smuggled out of his native country he gave us Easy Rider, Five Easy Pieces, The King of Marvin Gardens, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Mask and Paper Moon. In this day and age dominated by special effects his like will become few and far between.
