		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;My first picture with Tony [Richardson] was made in France with an entirely French crew, apart from myself and an editor I didn&#8217;t like. Oscar Lewenstein had uncovered a screen-play by Jean Genet written many years before, to while away one of his sojourns inside a French prison, that Genet himself had forgotten about…. It may have been this wildness in the place that caused Tony to decide quite early on to have only the actual sounds of nature, and no music. These was done for him by a very special recordist, Peter Handford, and led at one point to a typical exchange between them. Tony had asked for the sound of bats to be laid over one scene, and Peter explained that the frequency of bat sounds is outside the range of the human ear.&#8221;Well I’m most disappointed in you, Peter, why can&#8217;t you invent something?&#8221;… Quite early on Jocelyn Herbert, George Devine&#8217;s wife, arrived on a visit. It was a day when some farmers were doing something not very nice to an ox (I don&#8217;t know the specifics). The creature was cased in a heavy wooden frame where it couldn&#8217;t move, and Tony had set up close on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[David Watkin interview with Peter Handford This interview was recorded in the garden of Peter Handford on the 1st October 2002, by Barry Coward. www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-6FSjumapk In 1985 Peter won an Oscar and a Bafta for his work on Sidney Pollack&#8217;s Out of Africa. He also worked alongside David on Charge of the Light Brigade (1968) and Oh! What a Lovely War (1969). During the war he was part of the British Expeditionary Force evacuated when the Germans overran France. He returned as a cameraman on the D-Day landings. Handford was a modest man who did not care for the fuss and glamour of the film industry. In his spare time he used film recording techniques to capture the vanishing world of steam railways. He established the renowned record label Transacord which is dedicated to steam railway recordings. His collection of steam recordings is now lodged with the National Railway Museum in York.]]></description>
