John Huston
John Marcellus Huston (August 5, 1906 – August 28, 1987) was an American film director, screenwriter, actor, and visual artist.
Huston was a citizen of the United States by birth but renounced U.S. citizenship to become an Irish citizen and resident.
He returned to the United States, where he lived the rest of his life.
He wrote the screenplays for most of the 37 feature films he directed, many of which are today considered classics: "The Maltese Falcon" (1941), "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" (1948), "The Asphalt Jungle" (1950),
"The African Queen" (1951), "The Misfits" (1961), "Fat City" (1972), "The Man
Who Would Be King" (1975) and "Prizzi's Honor" (1986).
During his 46-year career, Huston received 15 Oscar nominations, winning twice, and directed both his father, Walter Huston, and daughter, Anjelica Huston, to Oscar wins.
Huston studied and worked as a fine art painter in Paris in his early years.
He explored the visual aspects of his films throughout his career, sketching each scene on paper beforehand, then carefully framing his characters during the shooting.
While most directors rely on post-production editing to shape their final work, Huston instead created his films while they were being shot, with little editing needed.
Some of Huston's films were adaptations of important novels, often depicting an "heroic quest," as in "Moby Dick", or "The Red Badge of Courage".
In many films, different groups of people, while struggling toward a common goal, would become doomed, forming "destructive alliances," giving the films a dramatic and visual tension.
Many of his films involved themes such as religion, meaning, truth, freedom, psychology, colonialism, and war.
Huston has been referred to as "a titana rebel", and a "renaissance man" in the Hollywood film industry.
Author Ian Freer describes him as "cinema's Ernest Hemingway"—a filmmaker who was "never afraid to tackle tough issues head on."
The Battle of San Pietro
The Battle of San Pietro is a documentary film directed by John Huston about the Battle of San Pietro Infine sixty miles from Naples during World War II.
It was shot by Jules Buck.
It was released in the U.S. in 1945 but shown to U.S. troops earlier.
Huston and his crew - which included the British novelist and screenwriter Eric Ambler - were attached to the U.S. Army’s 143rd Regiment of the 36th Division.
Unlike many other military documentaries, it was claimed
Huston’s cameramen filmed alongside the infantrymen as they fought their way up the hills to reach San Pietro.
Huston's claim that the film was made during the battle was proven false by the research of Peter Maslowski in his 1993 book, "Armed With Cameras"
The film is unflinching in its realism.
One scene includes close-up views of the faces of dead soldiers as they are being loaded into body bags, a level of realism unheard of in both fictional portrayals as well as newsreel footage of the time.
The United States Army delayed its release to the public because it showed dead GIs wrapped in mattress covers; some officers tried to prevent soldiers in training from seeing it, for fear of damaging morale.
General George Marshall came to Huston and took the film's defense, stating that because of the film's gritty realism, it would make a good training film.
The depiction of death would inspire soldiers to take their training more seriously.
Huston quickly became unpopular with the Army, not only for the film but also for his response to the accusation that the film was anti-war.
Huston responded that if he ever made a pro-war film, he should be shot.
The film was screened to U.S. troops in North Africa in 1944, where John Horne Burns described it in a letter as "almost more than any heart can stand".
Huston was no longer considered a pariah; he was decorated and eventually promoted to major.
In 1991, "The Battle of San Pietro" was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".
