After watching Straw Dogs I read this Sam Peckinpah interview and it’s filled w provocative quotes
scrapsfromtheloft.com/2017/08/17/sam-peckinpah-playboy-interview-1972
“PECKINPAH: The Peckinpah touch again? Well, some people think my pictures are pretty dreadful, including your movie reviewer, who I’d like to see cut a tin bill and go out and pick s*** with the chickens.
PLAYBOY: We’ll give him the message. You seem to be pretty vulnerable to what people think of you.
PECKINPAH: I think the role of the critic is very important to films, and that’s why I get so goddamn angry when the critics don’t pick up on good films and go along with bullshit, as they did on Bogdanovich’s film, The Last Picture Show, which was a crashing bore, and ignore something like Two-Lane Black-top, which I thought was a potential work of art. The Last Picture Show was artsy-craftsy, jacksy-offsky and a real pain in the ass. I was supposed to have dinner one night with Ben Johnson, who was superb in it, but I knew Peter would be there and I’d have to hit him right in the f***ing mouth, so I didn’t go. I really hated that film.”
I don’t love this guy’s opinions, but I like that he seems to speak w/o any filter
I don’t really think you can trust what he’s saying bc at one point he says
“ PLAYBOY: What about The Godfather?
PECKINPAH: Haven’t seen it — but I hate Coppola, too.
PLAYBOY: Why?
PECKINPAH: Because I hear the film is great and the only movies I want to like are my movies. I don’t want any other son of a b**** making good movies.
PLAYBOY: So you hate the good directors as well as the bad ones.
PECKINPAH: I detest every filmmaker except the innocuous ones.”
It’s an entertaining read of you like his stuff, Straw Dogs & Wild Bunches are both messy + strong films in my book. Not one of my favorite directors, but I’m glad to be a little familiar w his career
That’s my first time reading a playboy interview and I enjoyed it a lot. Got a Bergman one from 1964 to read later
Irishman was cool
Ad Astra was cool too
