Sidney Lumet RIP
One of the last true greats of American cinema, Sidney Lumet, passed away today at his home in Manhattan, aged 86.
His first feature ‘Twelve Angry Men‘ is not just one of my all time favourite films, but a masterclass in how to tell a compelling and meaningful story without the need for expensive locations, elaborate set design, unnecessary camera movements and cliché ridden over-scoring.
Celebrate his films. Tell everyone about them. Just don’t mention ‘The Wiz’.
