Vierny, Sacha (1919-2001)
 

Cinematographer

Main image of Vierny, Sacha (1919-2001)

A Frenchman who has worked numerous times with Peter Greenaway, who has described him as "my most important collaborator", giving a miraculous opulence and depth to these relatively low-budget art-house triumphs. The colour coding of The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover (d. Greenaway, 1989) is brilliantly conceived and executed.

Brian McFarlane, Encyclopedia of British Film
