The Cool World Two original photographs from the 1963 film
N.p.: Cinema V. 1963. Two vintage reference photographs from the 1963 film both showing actor Hampton Clanton. Printed mimeo snipes and date stamps on the versos. <br /> <br /> Based on the 1960 play by Warren Miller and Robert Rossen which was based on Miller's 1959 novel. The second feature to be directed by independent filmmaker Shirley Clarke following "The Connection" 1961. Both films were statements on the limitations of cinema verite and while appearing improvisational were in fact semi-documentaries with carefully scripted dialogue. Clarke aspired to make a non-judgmental film that resisted the moralizing prevalent in Hollywood "social issue" films. It was the first film to be produced by Frederick Wiseman who would go on to become a legendary documentary filmmaker and was scored by noted jazz composer and pianist Mal Waldron with performances by trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie. <br /> <br /> Set and shot on location in New York. <br /> <br /> 8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus.<br /> <br /> National Film Registry. Cinema V. unknown
