R.I.P. John Frankenheimer
 
http://us.imdb.com/PeopleNews/#2

Legendary Hollywood director John Frankenheimer, who helmed such films as The Manchurian Candidate and The Birdman of Alcatraz, died Saturday in a Los Angeles hospital. He was 72. Frankenheimer died of a stroke at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he had undergone spinal surgery. The filmmaker's career spanned almost five decades, and his work ranged from social dramas to political thrillers, and included a highly regarded run of feature films in the 1960s. Frankenheimer made his name with the political thriller The Manchurian Candidate in 1962. That same year he made the stirring social drama Birdman of Alcatraz, starring Burt Lancaster as a prisoner at San Francisco's Alcatraz prison who becomes an expert on birds. More recently, he directed Robert De Niro in Ronin (1998), Ben Affleck in Reindeer Games (2000) and this year's HBO special Path To War, an examination of the White House politics leading up to the Vietnam War. Directors Guild of America President Martha Coolidge said in a statement, "John's passion for filmmaking, and his appetite for life, were without equal. He was one of those rarest of people who, simply put, can never be replaced."

Ik moet eerlijk zeggen dat ik het niet zo'n gemis vind... Al heb ik alleen Ambush en Ronin gezien, ze waren niet echt geweldig ofzo. Maar ja, ze houden nogal van overdrijven in Amerika.

Ronin is zwaar vet met de auto's scene,ik heb nog nooit zo'n vette race scene gezien.
Verder ken ik die gozer niet zo goed,die andere films zijn al ver voor mij tijd met frank sinatra.
