Wagner

35mm nine-hour mini-series starring Richard Burton, 1982. I worked only a few days on this production, mainly photographing scenes in Venice; but also in Vienna where the three actor knights Laurence Olivier, John Gielgud and Ralph Richardson appeared together in the same scene of a film for the first and only time. Director of photography: Vittorio Storaro.
