- That third movie in question actually answered the question "Would Sicilians pick a bear or a man for their king?".
- Like John Ford, Anthony Mann had a prolific career. And like Tobe Hooper, his works have left an everlasting influence. You can read more about him in @honorszombie.bsky.social's book The Black Book: An Anthony Mann Reader. www.patreon.com/honorszombie...
- Not only that, we have talked about one animated feature that received an Oscar nod, one animated anthology that premiered at Sundance, and one animated film that has yet to received a distribution in the US. (You will see about it more tomorrow).
- Anthony Mann should be talked about more. He and his cinematographer John Alton established this high-contrast monochrome lighting you see in 1940s film noir dramas. And Frank Miller replicated those visual styles in his Sin City comic books.
- They told a noir thriller but set in an unexpected historical period - post-revolution France when Maximilien Robespierre was in power. The actors playing the 18th-century French people talks in transatlantic English like Fred MacMurray and Barbara Stanwyck.
