Frankenheimer on Location in Canada
Frankenheimer on Location in Canada By Gerald Pratley Fall 1999 Issue of KINEMA THE DISTINGUISHED American filmmaker, John Frankenheimer, has returned to Canada and is making his fourth motion picture there called Reindeer Games presently filming in Vancouver, British Columbia, for Miramax. The main players are Gary Sinese, Charlize Theron, Ben Affleck and Clarence Williams III. Frankenheimer is working from a script by Ehren Kruger, the writer’s second screenplay following Arlington Way, released this summer. Frankenheimer first came to British Columbia twenty years ago tofilm Prophecy, a horror story rooted in the pollution of the environment by the logging industries. He returned ten years later to Calgary, Drumheller and High River, to film Dead Bang, a brilliant piece of work based on the true story of a vicious white supremacy movement. He was back a year later, to Bragg Creek, Canmore and Calgary, to make The Fourth War, set on the snowbound Czech-West German frontier during the Cold War and relating a thoughtful moral tale of two generals, one American the other Russian, and their conflicting ideological beliefs. Now he is snowbound once again high in the Cypress Bowl mountains of West Vancouver shooting all-night scenes in freezing-cold weather with the unit bathed in the eerie light of Musko location lamps raised high in the dark sky. Affleck plays a newly released prisoner who assumes another man’s identity and findshimself involved in a casino robbery at Christmas time. The script appealed to Frankenheimer as a thoughtfully written story concerning men who were born evil and have become a violent sore to plague a complaisant society.

Sheriffen Itennessee
SHERIFFEN ITENNESSEE John Frankenheimers to sidste film, »The Gypsy M oths« og »I Walk the Line«, er blevet køligt eller direkte negativt modtaget af de fleste anmeldere og næsten totalt igno reret af det filminteresserede publikum. De to film har kæmpet en ulige kamp mod mode-smagen blandt hjemlige »seriøse« film entusiaster. Deres stjerner (Gregory Peck, Burt Lancaster, Deborah Kerr) personifice rer ikke noget smart eller avanceret, men tværtimod det »gamle« Hollywood, og deres emne — livet i den amerikanske lilleby — har ikke nogen aktuel appeal og tjener ikke til at bekræfte indtrykket af Frankenheimer som en slagkraftig, sprængfarlig politisk in struktør. Hvem kan tage Burt Lancaster al vorligt som en af »Luftens vovehalse« eller Gregory Peck som »Sheriffen i Tennessee«? M en det er ikke kun titler, stjerner og emnevalg, der arbejder imod Frankenheimer på den hjemlige filmbørs — det er også den forvirrende kendsgerning, at han er ved at forandre sig. Den gamle pågående dynamik og spektakulære billedretorik er forsvundet, og i »The Gypsy Moths« og »I Walk the Line« er tonefaldet lavmælt og næsten tø vende, grundstemningen melankolsk, livs holdningen tragisk. Der er en næsten Her man Bangsk nederlagsatmosfære i disse bil leder af stille eksistenser i en amerikansk provins, hvor alt synes at være gået i stå. Hvem havde troet, at instruktøren af »Syv dage i m aj« og »Grand Prix« ville speciali sere sig i »stille eksistenser«? En nærmere gennemgang af Frankenhei mers produktion vil dog vise, at provinsby skildringerne i »T he Gypsy M oths« og »I W alk the Line« har klare forløbere. I »All Fail Down« koncentrerer Frankenheimer sig for første gang helt om familiekonflikter i et John Frankenheimer (th.) i samtale med » sheriffen« (Gregory Peck) under optagelserne til stillestående provinsbymiljø, og i »Seconds« »Sheriffen i Tennessee«.

John Frankenheimer: Shooting Against the Wall
John Frankenheimer: shooting Against the Wall By Gerald Pratley Spring 1994 Issue of KINEMA ON JUNE 26 last year all the clocks at the Tennessee State Prison in Nashville stopped at 9 o’clock. The iron doors clanged shut, the last of the prisoners filed out to be transferred to other prisons, and adeep silence settled over the long corridors and empty cell blocks once teeming with a thousand inmates. Today the clocks still say 9 o’clock, but the doors are open again and the place alive with the familiar sights and sounds of a film crew on location. And director John Frankenheimer is at last in a prison! When Frankenheimer made Birdman of Alcatraz thirty-two years ago he planned at first to shoot it there, but permission was refused and he had to settle for studio sets. This gave the film a ”too clean look” he admits, but it was justified in part as the story was self-contained, like a poem, about one man aloneinhis cell devoted to the study of birds. It was not about daily life of men in prison. But his latest film, Against the Wall, shooting in this immense and impressive Victorian-era castle-like building soon to be torn down, is about prison life gone mad due to appalling living conditions. Ten years after Birdman the Attica New York State prison exploded in January 1971 with rage and riots, death and destruction. The response by Governor Rockefeller and the state troopers who clumsily and brutally put down the uprising left many questions unanswered.

Allen Rostron, the Law and Order Theme in Political and Popular Culture
OCULREV Fall 2012 Rostron 323-395 (Do Not Delete) 12/17/2012 10:59 AM OKLAHOMA CITY UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW VOLUME 37 FALL 2012 NUMBER 3 ARTICLES THE LAW AND ORDER THEME IN POLITICAL AND POPULAR CULTURE Allen Rostron I. INTRODUCTION “Law and order” became a potent theme in American politics in the 1960s. With that simple phrase, politicians evoked a litany of troubles plaguing the country, from street crime to racial unrest, urban riots, and unruly student protests. Calling for law and order became a shorthand way of expressing contempt for everything that was wrong with the modern permissive society and calling for a return to the discipline and values of the past. The law and order rallying cry also signified intense opposition to the Supreme Court’s expansion of the constitutional rights of accused criminals. In the eyes of law and order conservatives, judges needed to stop coddling criminals and letting them go free on legal technicalities. In 1968, Richard Nixon made himself the law and order candidate and won the White House, and his administration continued to trumpet the law and order theme and blame weak-kneed liberals, The William R.
