Vale – Alan Hume

Quick post today, to let you know of the passing of one of Britains legends of cinema, Alan Hume. Hume was a cinematographer on films as diverse as Return Of The Jedi, the James Bond classic A View To A Kill, A Fish Called Wanda and Shirley Valentine. But it is for his work on many of the British Carry On… films that he gained his reputation in the industry. We tip our had to his body of work today.

Mr Hume was 85.

Rodney Twelftree

“Some people say I like films. Those people are wrong. I *love* films.” – Me. I said this.

Rodney has been writing about films for well over two decades, appreciates a good wine, the love of his wife and kids, and the affection of his dog and cats. He has a fondness of cheesy 90’s action and classic Hollywood, hates that physical media is disappearing, and wishes somebody would make a high-budget series of The Neverending Story.
