#TBT to that time in 2008 when Haskell Wexler asked me to show him how the #FLIP #camera works. On this day, we remember the legendary #cinematographer who passed away on December 27, 2015. Haskell Wexler was an integral part of the Woodstock Film Festival family since its inception. He visited the festival often and took part in screenings, panels, concerts, and career day events, where he talked with area high school students about his experience as a filmmaker, a documentarian, and a human being. In 2008, Wexler received the Woodstock Film Festival’s Lifetime Achievement Award. #Legend is not a term used lightly to describe Wexler, who has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He won two Best Cinematography Oscars: one for "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (the last black and white film to receive the honor) and another for the Woody Guthrie biopic "Bound for Glory." Wexler was also credited as additional cinematographer on "Days of Heaven," which won a Best Cinematography Oscar for Nestor Almendros. He was nominated for three other films – "One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest," John Sayles‘ film "Matewan" and Ron Shelton’s "Blaze." Other film credits included the anti-war classic "Coming Home" and the racial drama "In the Heat of the Night," featuring Sidney Poitier and Rod Steiger. Wexler worked with many directors including Elia Kazan, Mike Nichols, Milos Forman, Hal Ashby, Norman Jewison, and George Lucas. In addition to his work as a cinematographer, Wexler directed a dozen documentaries. His seminal film, "Medium Cool," mixed documentary and dramatic elements to show the confrontation between Chicago police and protesters ,through a cameraman’s POV, at the 1968 Democratic National Convention. Since 2001, the Woodstock Film Festival has had the honor of presenting the Annual Haskell Wexler Cinematography Award, which is sponsored by Panavision NY. The award continues under the tutelage of Wexler disciple Ellen Kuras. #haskellwexler  #panavision
