[edit] The Savage Eye - Cinematographer?

Helen Levitt is listed as a cinematographer for the significant film, The Savage Eye. It seems very probable that this credit is for the photographer, but I haven't been able to find a confirmation in any of the lists of Helen Levitt's works. Easchiff 23:22, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

There is a clear indicator that Helen Levitt - and not Helen Slote Levitt - was the cinematographer: see the Benjamin Jackson reference in the article.Easchiff 04:13, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
