Together with Vilmos Zsigmond<\/b>, a fellow student, he filmed the 1956 Hungarian Revolution on black and white 35mm film as it developed day by day. After smuggling the 30,000 feet of film to the West in November of that year however, the revolution was no longer considered newsworthy and it was not until some years later that it was screened on the CBS television network. Shortly after coming to the USA he become famous for his award-winning work on Easy Rider<\/i><\/span>andFive Easy Pieces<\/i><\/span>. <\/p>\n
