Cinematographer
The cinematographer or director of photography (sometimes shortened to DP or DOP) is the person responsible for the photographing or recording of a film, television production, music video or other live action piece.

''Dumas'' (original title: ''L'Autre Dumas'') is a 2010 French film directed by Safy Nebbou about 19th-century French author Alexandre Dumas. Plot In February 1848, Alexandre Dumas (Gérard Depardieu) is at the height of his fame. He has withdrawn for a few days into the immense Château de Monte-Cristo near Le Port-Marly, that he is building. There he works with his collaborator, Auguste Maquet (Benoît Poelvoorde).

Who is the ''father '' of d'Artagnan, and of '' Monte Cristo''? In short, who is really the author? Their formerly peaceful relationship is now in dou ...
