Dick Pope, Oscar-Nominated Cinematographer of ‘Mr. Turner’ and ‘The Illusionist,’ Dies at 77
Dick Pope, a British cinematographer and regular Mike Leigh collaborator who was Oscar-nominated for 'Mr. Turner' and 'The Illusionist,' has died.
Pope has served as cinematographer on each of Leigh’s films since, with collaborating across period pieces and contemporary working class dramas that have documented the evolution of Britain into its post-Brexit form. Pope’s collaborations with Leigh and other British filmmakers provided him the reputation to leap across the pond and work in Hollywood productions. His final credit is “ Hard Truths,” Mike Leigh’s latest feature, which stars Marianne Jean-Baptiste and marks the director’s first contemporaneous narrative since “Another Year” in 2010.
