A personal great adventure

Rating: 10/10 (18 September 2002)

Patton was (and still is) the most brilliant documentary film about one of the most controversial figures of his time. It has been perfectly served (especially on location) by a wonderful team. From actors George C. Scott, Karl Malden, producers Gal. Frank McCarthy and Frank Caffey, Production Designer Gil Parondo, to Fred Koenekamp (the fastest Cinematographer, almost faster than this perfect gentleman/Director Franklin J. Schaffner). It has been a rare privilege to prepare the shooting in Rabat and Volubilis and meet with great professionals of this kind. What a bunch they were!
