Question: Which film has the director died first, The Prairie King or Confessions Of An Opium Eater?

His directorial output was limited mainly to low- budget westerns and action pictures, but it was as a second- unit director and action specialist that he was best known. William Reeves Eason( October 2, 1886 – June 9, 1956), known as B. Reeves Eason, was an American film director, actor and screenwriter. He was famous for staging spectacular battle scenes in war films and action scenes in large- budget westerns, but he acquired the nickname" Breezy" for his" breezy" attitude towards safety while staging his sequences — during the famous cavalry charge at the end of" Charge of the Light Brigade"( 1936), so many horses were killed or injured so severely that they had to be euthanized that both the public and Hollywood itself were outraged, resulting in the selection of the American Humane Society by the beleaguered studios to provide representatives on the sets of all films using animals to ensure their safety. <SEP> Querelle is a 1982 West German- French English- language drama film directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder and starring Brad Davis, adapted from French author Jean Genet's 1947 novel" Querelle of Brest". It marked Fassbinder's final film as a writer/ director; it was posthumously released just months after the director died of a drug overdose in June 1982. <SEP> It was produced and distributed by Universal Pictures. The Prairie King is a 1927 silent film western directed by B. Reeves Eason and starring Hoot Gibson. <SEP> With a background in music promotion( Ted Weems, Paul Whitman) public relations( one of his clients in depression era Chicago was Al Capone), journalism and brokering communication properties( radio, newspaper, early television), Zugsmith became independently wealthy and began producing films at RKO during the Howard Hughes years. Zugsmith's most significant credits are a string of four genre masterpieces produced in the late 1950s, all for Universal Studios: the science- fiction classic" The Incredible Shrinking Man," Orson Welles'" Touch of Evil," Douglas Sirk's" Written on the Wind", and the camp exploitation films produced for Metro- Goldwyn- Mayer" High School Confidential" and" The Girl in the Kremlin". Albert Zugsmith( April 24, 1910 – October 26, 1993) was an American film producer, film director and screenwriter who specialized in low- budget exploitation films through the 1950s and 1960s.

It is loosely based on the 1822 autobiographical novel, Confessions of an English Opium- Eater, by Thomas De Quincey. After circulating for years as a bootleg, it was released on DVD as part of the Warner Archive Collection in 2012. The film was something of a departure for Price; the prolific actor never performed another role that involved so much physical action. <SEP> Geraldine" Geri" Hoo Dwellers ( 1939- Dec. 29, 2007) was an American actress and beauty pageant contestant who was second runner up in the 1958 Miss Universe contest as a representative of Hawaii.
