The talented and prolific Laszlo Kovacs died Sunday at age 74. I can't really add anything to the media coverage and Internet except to say that he shot some of my favorite films:

Say Anything
Mask
Easy Rider
Ghostbusters
The Last Waltz
Shampoo
Freebie and the Bean
Paper Moon
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
What's Up, Doc?
The King of Marvin Gardens
Five Easy Pieces
