My Take
I have a real weakness for cinematographers, the unseen artists who shape a film's entire atmosphere, and Ben Richardson is the genuine article, holding both ASC and BSC accreditation. The director of photography decides how a performance is wrapped in light, a craft that lives or dies on patience and taste. That he has recently stepped into directing intrigues me, because a filmmaker who knows the image so intimately often brings a distinctive depth behind the camera. Born in the 1980s, he still has plenty ahead. His name may be modest, but it is people like him who give a screen its quiet, undeniable persuasiveness.
