Thought some might find some interest in this. Sven Nykvist interviewed about the light in "winter light"

He discuses the idea of not needing to make "beautiful" images when working with bergman and also his plan to create soft shadowless light. I made another post earlier about the orgins of soft light ....this certainly has to be part of that history. He talks of building frames with Wax Paper

Such a great one. 

Thanks!

 

It is a pity that one of the best interviews to Nestor Almendros is in Spanish and is not subtitled because he was a game changer together with Mr. Nykvist and Figueroa (Is that expression right? ) 

 

Best.

Game-changer? That's OK.
