在这部光影艳红菱纪录片片中,传奇摄影师杰克·卡迪夫(Jack Cardiff)生平回顾纪录片。 身为影史上首位获颁奥斯卡终身成就奖的摄影师，童星出身的杰克·卡迪夫早从四岁就演出第一部电影，十五岁转任摄影助理，就此展开横跨九十年的辉煌电影生涯。从《红菱艳》到《非洲皇后》到《第一滴血续集》，一生拍摄过逾百部作品，电影史的轨迹俨然镌刻在他的每一个镜头之中。马丁斯科塞斯导演也在片中向这位传奇摄影师献上礼赞
In 2001 Jack Cardiff (1914-2009) became the first director of photography in the history of the Academy Awards to win an Honorary Oscar. But the first time he clasped the famous statuette in his hand was a half-century earlier when his Technicolor camerawork was awarded for Powell and Pressburger's Black Narcissus. Beyond John Huston's The African Queen and King Vidor's War and Peace, the films of the British-Hungarian creative duo (The Red Shoes and A Matter of Life and Death too) guaranteed immortality for the renowned cameraman whose career spanned seventy years.
