John Huston: A New Perspective On Directing (Full Documentary) 

When the film says John Huston, one stands to pay respect.

Very enjoyable. I had forgotten just how talented he was. Movies were art in those days, now it's all about special effects. Thank you.

Loved him as Noah, and as Director in the Dino DE Laurentis production of “The Bible “. In awe of the quality of everything necessary to create a 🎥 film.

Studying the works of John Huston is such a pleasure and a challenge. It is a library of movie-making and great story-telling.

Great to see Angela Allen here. But this documentary is bloody blinkered, with Zero Mention of The Asphalt Jungle; Reflections In A Golden Eye; The Life & Times of Judge Roy Bean, Fat City; Prizzi's Honor, & The Dead. What the hell?

Grew up with his voice work in the Hobbit, Return of the King, and The Black Cauldron, and only discovered today that he was a director! What a talented man.

This is beautiful documentary of an astounding man...thank you

The first film I loved as a boy was Moby Dick. I remember when it would come on TV, they would call it, "John Huston's Moby Dick." I wondered who John Huston was since he wasn't in the movie. Not too much later I learned the role of a director and their job on movies, and years later I became one. Largely thanks to John Huston.

It's a shame that no mention was made of "Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison", a superb film. But then, this documentary would have to be many hours long to do full justice to the subject.

John just ate life had a great big bite loved every bit of it,and he loved his children

A real unique character & love his movies. Thank you for this.

My channel is full of this "Huston" style directing, lol, I kid. Very nice piece!!

...Huston , great director, and great persona, one of my favorite, ...look for his autobiography, if anyone is interested...

Thank you for that.

His character was creepy in Chinatown. 😯

The Man Who Would Be King is very pertinent to today. Yes, it has all that, “man v nature,” stuff, and testing yourself to the limit things, etc. But its central theme is how con men come up with various stories on the hoof to suit any situation, just to get what they want, until one of them falls for his own legend and dooms them both. How many business moguls, now in jail, or politicians, now convicted, have we seen like that? That’s why it’s one of Huston’s greatest artistic achievements; because it speaks truth in fiction. A truth that is a warning and that resonates more strongly now than it did back then.

I actually like The Visitor too

Walter was in Rain, I believe.

No mention of the last film he did, in Ireland. A shirt film, the name of which I’ve forgotten ... but one of his very best. It’s a triumph.

Bogie is - great.
