Re: Art History...
Great article, Walter. I've seen the Godfather many times and never realized much of the lighting was as simple as one source. I'm picturing the scene in II now, of Michael and Fredo in the room at the lakehouse and all the light coming in from one window.
I noticed some typos in your piece:
"then you ought to know it. It’s the element that helped make Marlene Dietrich a star, made The Godfather’ a household name, inspired the term 'noir', and gave 'Citizen Cane' the title of number one movie of all time."
You're missing a ' in front of the The Godfather, and Citizen Kane is spelled with a K -- Kane is spelled correctly in the AFI top ten list.
