Walter Lassally, a renowned cinematographer and director, whose remarkable life and career spanned over nine decades, was born on December 18, 1926, in the vibrant city of Berlin, Germany.
As a master of his craft, Lassally left an indelible mark on the world of cinema, with some of his most notable works including the iconic film "Zorba the Greek" in 1964, the critically acclaimed "Heat and Dust" in 1983, and the thought-provoking "Before Midnight" in 2013.
Beyond his impressive body of work, Lassally's personal life was marked by a deep love and commitment to his wife, Nadia Lassali.
Sadly, Lassally's remarkable journey came to an end on October 23, 2017, in Crete, Greece, where he had chosen to spend his final days amidst the breathtaking beauty of the Mediterranean.
