Tietje Posted June 22, 2011 Share #4 Posted June 22, 2011 There's a story that Yul Brynner kept his M under/behind his throne during the 10 Commandments, (he was playing Rameses II) and take the odd shot during breaks in filming ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to have some perspective here. Nowadays, all the actors hold an iPhone in their pants while acting and not only do they take instamatic snaps in-between scenes but they also film! In 50 years from now, if the iPhone holds its mystique, people like you will say: Man, Robert DeNiro used to take pictures with his iPhone 3Gs during breaks in filming (he was playing the Godfather). That iPhone is really something! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying all actors had an M camera stashed on set in the 70s? Pete Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted June 22, 2011 Share #7 Posted June 22, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Or that DeNiro had an iPhone in 1973? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pico Posted June 22, 2011 Share #9 Posted June 22, 2011 BFD Anyone could have made those pictures. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MX5Bob Posted June 23, 2011 Share #10 Posted June 23, 2011 BFD Anyone could have made those pictures. I disagree. There are some fine portraits and interesting candids. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobey bilek Posted June 23, 2011 Share #11 Posted June 23, 2011 BFD Anyone could have made those pictures. If they could, they didn`t. Besides they are really fine portraits. Perhaps you had to have seen the real people on screen to appreciate them. Most of todays movies do not hold a candle to what was produced then. Give credit to the supporting people also.

J_Thompson Posted June 23, 2011 Share #12 Posted June 23, 2011 The portrait of Audrey Hepburn in Venice is particularly nice. But then, she was undoubtedly an excellent subject. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruhayat Posted June 23, 2011 Share #13 Posted June 23, 2011 I agree... some nice shots in there. The guy definitely had some skill and talent. The one with Cecil B deMille on the platform looked like a prop from a movie itself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecaton Posted June 23, 2011 Author Share #14 Posted June 23, 2011 BFD Anyone could have made those pictures. Sure. And anybody would have gotten these celebrities in from of their lenses for candids, showing some of them in a relaxed private environment. Anybody, even you (got your point) :rolleyes: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bateleur Posted June 23, 2011 Share #16 Posted June 23, 2011 I particularly like the ones of Ingrid Bergman, by the way there is a book of Yul Brynner's photographs entitled "Yul Brynner: Photographer edited by his daughter Victoria. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andybarton Posted June 23, 2011 Share #19 Posted June 23, 2011 BFD Anyone could have made those pictures. Anyone with the same access and trust of their co-stars Just as anyone could have taken any photograph if they were in the right place, at the right time, with the right skills and equipment. The whole point is, Yul Bryner did, which makes them interesting in themselves. IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
