Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Rousselot won his Oscar for A River Runs Through It, not the more visually bombastic Interview with the Vampire—academy voters preferred subtlety over gothic excess.
Diva (1981) remains one of the most influential French films on American cinematographers; Rousselot's work there directly inspired the visual language of 1980s MTV and early music videos.
