Vittorio Storaro


An Italian cinematographer. He went to the film school, Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia. He worked on films such as The Last Emperor, Apocalyse Now, The Conformist and others.


Often collaborated with director, Bernardo Bertolucci.


The movie I am most interested in is The Last Emperor because of Storaro's use of color psycology. He was inspired by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's theory of colors, and used color to show the stages of the life of Puyi.
