Packet 3: Tossup 1

The anamorphic bokeh of lights from passing cars backdrop a scene by this cinematographer in which night shots of a couple buying peaches at a market are set to Michael Small’s trumpet melody “Love Theme.” This DOP hoisted a remote-controlled camera along a winch for an aerial shot that rises towards the dome of a library. “Rhapsody in Blue” plays over a montage of this DOP’s shots of city life (15[1])to open a comedy shot in monochrome (-5[1])2.31:1 (15[1])widescreen, (15[1])whose best-known frame depicts a (*) bridge looming over the leads (10[1])sitting on a bench. This DOP’s (10[1])penchant (-5[1])for underexposing negatives earned him the moniker “Prince of Darkness.” This DOP (10[1])of Woody Allen’s Manhattan and Alan J. Pakula’s Paranoia Trilogy (10[1])used a sepia tint throughout a film whose final shot depicts a door being shut on Kay. For 10 points, name this cinematographer (-5[1])of The Godfather trilogy. ■END■ (10[1]0[11])
