 Review: Visions of Light   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
Visions of Light states that cinematography is the art of light -- blending it so it enhances the director's vision.
Much time is spent discussing this subject as well as various other technical aspects of the craft (the role of close-ups, the importance of showing a performer from a particular angle, and the advantages and disadvantages of certain shots).
Visions of Light is somewhat didactic and doesn't attempt any ground breaking documentary techniques.

 Arnold Glassman - Visions Of Light - DVDs & VHS - MovieMail UK
The history of cinema ennobles, even fetishizes, the names of films’ directors and stars while undervaluing other important contributors, so it’s refreshing to see a documentary celebrating those who do so much for the look of a film but whose work is often forgotten about later, the cinematographers.
Visions of Light in fact provides an alternative history of names — Karl Struss, Gregg Toland, John Alton, James Wong Howe, Vilmos Zsigmond, and appraises their contributions to the look of films.
Plenty of clips are shown to illustrate technique, and there are also a number of nuggets to found here, with the special ways of lighting the stars (Marlene Dietrich from on high because of her cheekbones, Claudette Colbert from one side), being just one.
