Gordon is gone, but he leaves behind his wonderful trail-blazing work including visual masterpieces like:
- Klute
- Godfather part 1
- Godfather part 2
- Manhattan
- All the President’s Men
Gordon Willis changed the art of cinematography for ever.
May God bless his soul.

The photo is from Caleb Deshchanel’s toast to Gordon 5 years ago, when he finally received his well-deserved honorary Oscar. Caleb’s speech remains a funny, apt tribute to the outspoken man and great artist.
