Will Sampson
Will Sampson. Obituary notices I. “Los Angeles Times”, 4 June 1987. I. P. 24. Role in “Cuckoo’s Nest” Will Sampson, Gentle Indian Giant, Dies. By Burt A. Folkart, “Times” Staff Writer Will Sampson, the gentle Indian giant best remembered for his portrayal of the feigning mute chief in the alternately amusing and poignant film, “One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest”, died Wednesday in Houston. He was 53 and died 43 days after undergoing a heart-lung transplant at Methodist Hospital, to which he had gone from his home in Los Angeles. The 6-foot, 7-inch tall full-blooded Creek Indian who came to acting after careers on the rodeo circuit and as an artist, had suffered from scleroderma, a chronic degenerative disease that produces swelling of the skin and affected his heart and lungs. Knew Chances Were Slim Hospital spokeswoman Brenda Blake, who said that Sampson’s son and former wife were at his bedside, said: “he knew that his chances for survival were extremely small, because of his weakened condition prior to surgery”. His weight had dropped from a normal 260 pounds to 140. “Cuckoo’s Nest”, based on the novel by Ken Kesey, was made in 1975 after most producers had rejected as commercially unattractive its plot of a mental inmate literally taking over his asylum. The film won five Academy Awards, including two for its stars, Jack Nicholson and Louise Fletcher, and critical praise for Sampson’s portrayal of Chief Bromden. In the film’s climax, he provides a disturbing, ultimate gesture of defiance. -
2 Will Sampson
Тексты интервью в русском переводе Светланы Лютовой см. на стр. 3 и 5 Big Will [Text # 1 about Will Sampson (1933 –1987), American artist & an actor] by Katrine Ames & Martin Kasindorf /Newsweek 87 (July 26, 1976): 73/ In “One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest” he was Chief Bromden, the psycho-ward inmate who successfully defied the system by pretending to be deaf-and-dump. In the current “Buffalo Bill and the Indians” he is William Halsey, Sitting Bull’s eloquent, seemingly incorruptible interpreter until the very end – when he allows himself to be corrupted by Buffalo Bill Cody. In these supporting but pivotal roles, Will Sampson has become that most belated of Hollywood discoveries – a full-blooded American Indian who has all the makings of a full-blooded American movie star. Hollywood’s usual way with Indians has been to turn them into one of three stereotypes: the old sage (Chief Dan Georg), the white man’s loyal side kick (the Lone Ranger’s Tonto, Jay Silverheels) or the Big Bad Brave (numerous bit players). Sampson, a Creek Indian who is 43 and 6 feet 5 inches, is something else. Again – a towering figure of genuine mystery who not only has the white man’s number but is working on one of his own. Now under contract to make four movies for producer Dino De Laurentis, he has just finished “The White Buffalo”, in which he will appear as Crazy Horse to Charles Bronson’s Wild Bill Hickok, and he is now playing an Indian seaman in a “Jaws” spin off called “Orca”. -

American Indians in Feature Films: Beyond the Big Screen
City University of New York (CUNY) CUNY Academic Works Publications and Research City College of New York 2014 American Indians in Feature Films: Beyond the Big Screen Daisy V. Domínguez CUNY City College How does access to this work benefit ou?y Let us know!

Contact: [email protected] American Indians in Feature Films: Beyond the Big Screen1 Despite some progress in the portrayal of American Indians on the big screen, the most pervasive image comes to the general public courtesy of the Western, a genre that limits the depiction of this diverse population to 19th century Plains Indian culture (or some variation or distortion of it).2 As is common in other feature films, Westerns have often lacked historical accuracy and context. Westerns have also tended to portray American Indians solely as aggressors or as vanquished peoples, without reference to historical accuracy (O’Conner xv-xv i). However, there is a significant body of films stretching back to Hollywood’s early days and still making its mark beyond Hollywood that counters this stereotypical image. These films show Native American experiences in greater breadth and depth and include American Indian protagonists, actors and directors. This paper will examine whether WorldCat library holdings reflect this alternative body of work by conducting a quantitative comparative analysis. It also offers relevant collection development resources for American Indian feature film production. -
