Burt Lancaster was a really good guy.
I mean he did os many movies simply because he believed in them, no matter what the commercial prospects were.
I loved him in Local Hero. What a gem of a movie.
And you are right, its hard to imagine some of those movies he did, like say Seven Days in May, or Twilight's last Gleaming being made today.
The whole last part of my book is about this tremendously important issue. Which everyone ignores.
But its really a huge one. SOrt of like the elephant in the room.
