Laurie Rose

Biography from TheMovieDB

Born in East London, gaining an art school background followed by a number of years in television and documentary, Laurie always wanted to convey stories visually. His break into narrative work came almost by accident with director Ben Wheatley on DOWN TERRACE (2009) and since then a passion for combining story with the moving image has led to further collaborations with some of the most exciting directors working today. For Laurie, it’s resolutely about collaboration – joining with like-minded people to realise a story together. Now based in Brighton, Laurie lives with his wife and two children.  Laurie Rose is known for his work with Ben Wheatley including HIGH-RISE and FREE FIRE. Also LONDON SPY, for the BBC for which he won a BAFTA for Photography and Lighting in 2016 and Season 3 of BBC’s PEAKY BLINDERS. Recent film credits include Saul Dibb’s JOURNEY’S END, Dominic Savage’s THE ESCAPE, Jon S Baird’s STAN AND OLLIE, starring Steve Coogan and John C Reilly, as well as PET SEMATARY, directed by Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer. Projects due to release are REBECCA (Working Title/Netflix), and FREAKY (Universal/Blumhouse) – most recent projects include Jessica Swale’s SUMMERLAND and Gavin Rothery’s ARCHIVE.  Laurie is an accredited member and a Governor of the British Society of Cinematographers.  (https://www.asff.co.uk/delegate/laurie-rose-2/)

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.

Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
