This post is for The Dynamic Duos in Classic Film Blogathon Hosted by Classic Movie Hub and Once upon a screen…
Robert Aldrich is one of my favorite directors with numerous memorable films that transcend a restrictive genre tag. He always brings us a cynical and gritty story with very flawed characters who are at the core ambiguous as either the protagonist or the antagonist. Aldrich took economics in college, then dropped out and landed a very low-paying job at first as a clerk with RKO Radio Pictures Studio in 1941.
He studied with great directors like Jean Renoir. It was his training in the trenches that made him the auteur he is, delving inside the human psyche and questioning what is morality.
Aldrich has a flare for the dramatic. He likes to break molds and cross over boundaries. He also has a streak of anti-authoritarianism running through the veins of his films. There aren't just traces of his ambivalence toward the Hollywood machine in his film philosophy, he also conflates the ugly truths beneath the so-called American Dream and the "real" people who inhabit that world.
He died in 1983, and while he remained inside the Hollywood circle, he maintained an outsider persona. He memorialized the misfits and outcasts by making them

Talk:John Wayne/Archive 1

Lung Cancer
Some trace his cancer back to his work in The Conqueror, filmed about 100 miles downwind of Nevada nuclear-weapons test sites. Several people who worked on this movie died of cancer. It has been suggested that the crew brought sand back from the site to use in the studio for other scenes and that this sand was radioactive.
However Wayne was reported to have been a chain smoker - four to five packs (75-to-100 cigarettes) a day for forty years.
There has NEVER been any evidence at all in any memoirs about Duke by those that knew him, that ever even hinted that there was a suspicion of him being gay. Not even from people that had an axe to grind with him. It is laughable that anyone can cast innuendo and unsubstantiated gossip about a man that spent his life as an American icon of male sexuality. Incredible! Just as someone else on this thread so eloquently put forth.........if you have no facts I guess you can allege that every man in the world is a homosexual. It's childish and without merit. Rockshake16:09, 7 February 200
