. . .for that scene in Paths of Glory.
:22:09
You know, I thought he
looked extraordinary.

:22:14
And he just sat there. . .
:22:17
. . .beaming at me, grinning at me
throughout the interview. . .

:22:21
. . .and I must have grinned back.
:22:24
He's been smiling at me
for 43 years afterwards.

:22:28
Following Paths of Glory, Christiane
and her daughter, Katharina. . .

:22:33
. . .moved with Stanley to Los Angeles.
:22:36
Stanley and Christiane
were married in 1 958. . .

:22:39
. . .and Hollywood would be their home
for the next few years. . .

:22:42
. . .where they were to have two more
children, Anya and Vivian.

:22:47
For its damning portrayal
of the French officer class. . .

:22:51
...Paths of Glory would be banned
in France for nearly 20 years.

:22:55
The film brought its director
firmly to the attention of Hollywood.

:22:59
He was still only 28.
:23:05
I think that if the reigning powers
had any respect for good pictures...

:23:08
...or the people
who could make them...

:23:10
... that this respect was probably
very well tempered...

:23:14
...by the somewhat
cynical observation...

:23:18
... that poor and mediocre pictures
might just as well prove successful...

:23:21
...as their pictures of higher value.
:23:24
Television has changed
this completely.

:23:27
And I think that despite
the unhappy financial upheaval...

:23:32
...it's caused
in the movie industry...

:23:34
...it's also provided an invigorating
and stimulating challenge...

:23:39
... which has made it necessary for
films to be made with more sincerity...

:23:43
...and more daring.
:23:45
If Hollywood lacks the color
and excitement of its early days...

:23:51
... with Rolls-Royces
and leopard-skin seat covers...

:23:54
...on the other hand it provides
the most stimulating atmosphere...

:23:58
...of opportunity and possibilities
for young people.
