The Kid Keeps Shooting the Pictures

DP John Bailey discusses his 30 years in the business

As with many of his contemporaries, it was the directors and
films of the French New Wave that led cinematographer John
Bailey to his destiny. He has worked on more than 50 features,
from Hollywood fare like Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood
to indie breakthroughs like The Anniversary Party.
With his latest non-fiction entry, The Kid Stays in the
Picture, in theaters now, Bailey took some time
to speak with MM about the future of film, why he's
always shifting gears and how he finds his alternate reality.
