Hello everyone,
This is my first post to the list, and is actually a request for help.   I
am looking for a late 70s film (probably American) where the director tried
to use only natural
light sources, as much as possible including sunlight, candlelight...etc.
The goal was to recreate the same atmosphere as the diegetic characters
would have felt on their skin. It was suggested to me that the film was set
in the 18th century.   If this description rings a bell with anyone, or if
there are other films you can suggest that use only natural light
(especially with indoors scenes) please let me know.

Thank you very much. 

Jonathan M. Hall
