		Adrian Biddle, who has died of a heart attack aged 53, was one of the last of the old school of cinematographers - and one of the first of the new.
		Adrian used to say that he learned about lighting from being stuck on a crane with Scott for hours while the director set up the shot.
		Adrian had the rare ability to work at a very wide aperture, allowing highlights, such as the gun flashes, to burn right through the film emulsion, while maintaining essential detail elsewhere.

	Adrian Biddle - Films as cinematographer:, Other films:
		To his credit, Biddle's undeniable lighting skill has never been swamped by the regular deluges of special effects in his movies, the two elements usually complementing rather than competing with each other.
		James Cameron's visual style is as dynamic as his storytelling, and he had Biddle working with quantities of smoke, mist, steam, strobes, flashes, flames, and gunfire.
		Demonstrating an aptitude for sharply defined images, Biddle also gives liquid substances a curiously visceral quality: the condensation on Ripley's cryogenic pod, water splashing into a see-through cup, rain falling on the planet surface, sweat on Sigourney Weaver's finely chiselled face, even the gross-out drool from the aliens'; mouths.

		While Biddle was quite adept at handling the problem in close-ups (which featured little of the fl clothing), the problem in wider shots was unavoidable.

		Biddle shot “Shanghai Knights” in wide-screen anamorphic format (1:2.35), which gives a more epic look but requires more lighting, as the lenses can’t go as wide open.
		They do, however, allow for more movement in the frame, which is ideal for Biddle, who likes to keep the camera from getting in the way of the story, moving it only when necessary.
		Says executive producer Ed McDonnell, “Adrian Biddle is very quiet on the set, and works with a camera crew he knows very well.

		Although the film has a couple of awkward transitions, one would need a powerful lab microscope to determine the authorship of individual scenes.
		It's a real testament to the filmmakers --- especially initial cameraman Adrian Biddle and finisher Ian Baker --- that the overall picture approaches the consummate stylishness Charles Crichton brought to "Wanda." And production designer Roger Murray-Leach (a "Wanda" alum) has invented a zoo that's inviting, inspired and apparently quite functional.

		The perils the actors face would be far more shuddersome were their characters more sharply delineated from the outset.
		An obvious ton of money was thrown at the production, which is often visually dazzling with Adrian Biddle's sweeping, hyper-crystaline photography and Joseph Bennett's brilliant production design (the spaceships are like the most high-tech, resplendently lit discos imaginable).
		With all these elements working at top form, why have them all be dragged down by a script any sixth-grader with a lurid imagination could come up with?
