Weegee (Arthur Fellig) took photos of the dark side of New York City.
Weegee was the cigar-chewing saturnine poet of New York's Lower East Side in the 1930s and '40s who inspired Jules Dassin’s “Naked City” (1948). #filmnoir #Weegeehttps://t.co/GPjhlS7WXR

PETER SELLERS on how legendary shutterbug WEEGEE (Arthur Fellig) was thrown a bone by Kubrick and given the stills gig on DR. STRANGELOVE (1964) but ended up having a huge influence on Sellers’ vocal performance of the titular character in the movie.

Spotted! There's Weegee up on the ledge. He's presumably waiting for some action across the street at Police Headquarters. His studio was located in the building on the right. #WeegeeWednesday https://t.co/20lwRw5Fm7 pic.twitter.com/u361Ef76rW
