Gregg Toland
One of the filmwatchers on this topic noted that this film had great black and white photography, the best, just after "Citizen Kane": not surprising, the same cinematographer, Gregg Toland, did both these films as well as Ford's "The Grapes of Wrath". Toland is THE specialist in deep-focus black and white camera work - deep focus meaning that every object is clear between the viewer and the back of the picture.
