A documentary about the long-underrated talent of the late legendary action director William A. Wellman (1896-1975), one of Hollywood''s most distinguished journeymen helmers. William A. Wellman drew on his experiences as a fighter pilot during World War I to create a series of films about men of action as rugged, sentimental, raucous and tender as the director himself. He was equally noted for his off-screen battles with executives; and after building his career at Paramount and Warner Bros., Wellman vowed never to sign another long-term studio contract, and went on his way, refusing to take guff from anybody!
William "Wild Bill" Wellman, a tough, no-nonsense film director (and fighter pilot in WW1) provides some insight into film making.

William Wellman, Jr, grew up in a Beverly Hills neighborhood surrounded by celebrities. As a teenager in the 1950's it was natural for him to enter show business. Television was cranking out westerns, so Bill, outfitted in a black hat, black boots, black shirt, black jeans, a low slung black holster and six-gun, had a series of 8x10 glossies made for auditions. Did it help him land any parts? You bet it did! Hear what Richard Boone had to say when Bill wore the black outfit to a "Have Gun, Will Travel" casting call. Bill got that part, one of several he did on the show. He also appeared on a couple of "Gunsmoke" episodes. How did these two popular western series and their stars compare? Who were some of the Wellman's celebrity neighbors? How old was Bill when he began dating neighbor Jane Fonda and discovered that all she wanted to do was play kissing games? Answers to those questions and more are all in Bill Wellman's exclusive A WORD ON WESTERNS conversation. Recorded Nov 20, 2018.

Wings is a 1927 American silent war film set during the First World War that won the first Academy Award for Best Picture at the first annual Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences award ceremony in 1929. I decided to mix this movie with Danger Zone, a tune composed by Giorgio Moroder and performed by Kenny Loggins, that was featured in a certain similarly themed movie almost 60 years later. Enjoy!

Ce western est l’occasion pour Bertrand Tavernier de revenir sur la genèse de ce film, adapté d’une histoire de Frank Capra, mais également de nous parler du personnage Wellman et des points importants de sa filmographie, que Convoi de Femmes cristallise. Enfin, Bertrand Tavernier aborde deux autres personnes liées à Convoi de Femmes, l’actrice Denise Darcel et le scénariste Charles Schnee.

William A. Wellman
William Augustus Wellman (February 29, 1896 – December 9, 1975) was an American film director and actor. Although Wellman began his film career as an actor, he worked on over 80 films, as director, producer and consultant, but most often as a director, notable for his work in crime, adventure and action genre films, often focusing on aviation themes, a particular passion. He also directed several well-regarded satirical comedies.
Wellman directed the 1927 film Wings, which became the first film to win an Academy Award for Best Picture at the 1st Academy Awards ceremony.
Early life
Wellman's father, Arthur Gouverneur Wellman, was a New England Brahmin of English-Welsh-Scottish and Irish descent. William was a great-great-great-great-great-grandson of Puritan Thomas Wellman who immigrated to the Massachusetts Bay Colony about 1640. William was a great-great-great grandson of Francis Lewis of New York, one of the signatories to the Declaration of Independence. His much beloved mother was an Irish immigrant named Cecilia McCarthy.

A documentary about the long-underrated talent of the late legendary action director William A. Wellman (1896-1975), one of Hollywood''s most distinguished journeymen helmers. William A. Wellman drew on his experiences as a fighter pilot during World War I to create a series of films about men of action as rugged, sentimental, raucous and tender as the director himself. He was equally noted for his off-screen battles with executives; and after building his career at Paramount and Warner Bros., Wellman vowed never to sign another long-term studio contract, and went on his way, refusing to take guff from anybody!

William Wellman, Jr. is the author of Wild Bill Wellman: Hollywood Rebel (2015), a biography of his father, director William A. Wellman, a giant of the motion picture industry from the Silent Era to the 1950s, whom he talks about in this clip. Wellman’s 82 films include history’s first Academy Award winner for Best Picture, WINGS (1927), as well as such iconic films as A STAR IS BORN (1937), THE OX-BOW INCIDENT (1943), and THE HIGH AND THE MIGHTY (1954). Drawing on his father’s unpublished letters, diaries, notes and unfinished autobiography, the new book offers the first full portrait of the man. A notable character actor in his own right, Wellman Jr. is also the author of The Man and His Wings (2006), about the making of his father’s silent masterpiece.

Wings is a 1927 American silent war film set during the First World War that won the first Academy Award for Best Picture at the first annual Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences award ceremony in 1929. I decided to mix this movie with Danger Zone, a tune composed by Giorgio Moroder and performed by Kenny Loggins, that was featured in a certain similarly themed movie almost 60 years later. Enjoy!

Des femmes de Chicago rencontrent un propriétaire qui décide de les recruter pour son ranch en Californie. Elles doivent alors entamer toute une traversée vers l’ouest Américain…une traversée qui sera bien sûr semée d’embuches.
Dans cette interview, le réalisateur Bertrand Tavernier nous parle du film de William A. Wellman, Convoi de Femmes, sorti en 1951. Ce western est l’occasion pour Bertrand Tavernier de revenir sur la genèse de ce film, adapté d’une histoire de Frank Capra, mais également de nous parler du personnage Wellman et des points importants de sa filmographie, que Convoi de Femmes cristallise. Enfin, Bertrand Tavernier aborde deux autres personnes liées à Convoi de Femmes, l’actrice Denise Darcel et le scénariste Charles Schnee.
Convoi de Femmes, de William A. Wellman, avec Robert Taylor, diffusé le 1er avril 2018 à 22:50 sur Arte.

William A. Wellman
William Augustus Wellman (February 29, 1896 – December 9, 1975) was an American film director and actor. Although Wellman began his film career as an actor, he worked on over 80 films, as director, producer and consultant, but most often as a director, notable for his work in crime, adventure and action genre films, often focusing on aviation themes, a particular passion. He also directed several well-regarded satirical comedies.
Wellman directed the 1927 film Wings, which became the first film to win an Academy Award for Best Picture at the 1st Academy Awards ceremony.
Early life
Wellman's father, Arthur Gouverneur Wellman, was a New England Brahmin of English-Welsh-Scottish and Irish descent. William was a great-great-great-great-great-grandson of Puritan Thomas Wellman who immigrated to the Massachusetts Bay Colony about 1640. William was a great-great-great grandson of Francis Lewis of New York, one of the signatories to the Declaration of Independence. His much beloved mother was an Irish immigrant named Cecilia McCarthy.
