EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the intense focus and collaboration between English actor Leslie Howard and French cinematographer Georges Perinal during the filming of "The First of The Few" in 1942. Howard, dressed in a heavy coat and scarf, demonstrates a gesture with his arms, likely discussing a scene or a detail of the Spitfire aircraft design with Perinal. The cinematographer, with a thoughtful expression and notepad in hand, listens intently, his hips slightly angled as he absorbs the information. The outdoor setting, with the sun casting long shadows and the Spitfire plane visible in the background, adds to the sense of determination and grit that defined the era. Directed by the esteemed wartime filmmaker, Michael Powell, and produced by the visionary team of Michael Balcon and Gabriel Pascal, "The First of The Few" was a groundbreaking British war film that paid tribute to the heroic pilots of the Royal Air Force. Leslie Howard, known for his versatile acting abilities, portrayed the lead role of R.J. Mitchell, the designer of the iconic Spitfire aircraft. Georges Perinal, a renowned French cinematographer, brought his expertise and artistry to the production, capturing the raw emotion and intensity of the film's pivotal moments. This photograph stands as a testament to the creative partnership between the actor and the cinematographer, as well as the larger team effort that went into bringing "The First of The Few" to life on the silver screen.
