John Huston

Today is the anniversary of the death in 1987 of John Huston. NPR did a story on him. AFI gave him their Life Achievement Award. FilmReference.com has a page on him.

I have blog posts on the following of his films:

The Maltese Falcon (1941)
Report from the Aleutians (1943) is embedded below.
The Battle of San Pietro (1945)
A link to view Let There Be Light (1946) online is below.
Key Largo (1948)
Beat the Devil (1953)
The Man Who Would Be King (1975)

His Report from the Aleutians is a 1943 war-time documentary that can be seen at the Internet Archive or from googlevideo:


Let There Be Light, an hour-long 1946 documentary which follows a group of shell-shocked soldiers through hospitalization/treatment/revovery, can be seen at googlevideo, but embedding has been disabled.
