Making money was never his goal; his career was a long series of passion projects. I certainly miss that approach in today's Hollywood.Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15515783219367479399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070623657970000135.post-50041369208287599352013-08-15T20:00:11.551-07:002013-08-15T20:00:11.551-07:00Stanley Kramer seems like the very best kind of mo...Stanley Kramer seems like the very best kind of movie producer. I can tell you that in my years in the business I never worked with anyone like him. Some nice producers, some talented producers, a lot of untalented jackwagon producers - but no one quite like Stanley Kramer. <br /><br />Another post that makes me long to be on the West Coast to take part in these copious screenings all over the place all the time!Craig Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06037542638067599437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070623657970000135.post-9792273317664606822013-08-13T17:48:55.685-07:002013-08-13T17:48:55.685-07:00Good idea, Gratteciella, but I think I need to tak...Good idea, Gratteciella, but I think I need to take a guided tour first.<br />Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15515783219367479399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070623657970000135.post-32438514550594537332013-08-13T17:27:54.189-07:002013-08-13T17:27:54.189-07:00You should write a blog post about Hollywood Forev...You should write a blog post about Hollywood Forever!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070623657970000135.post-74747207950615987042013-08-13T16:09:05.222-07:002013-08-13T16:09:05.222-07:00Stanley Kramer made almost thirty-five films, star...Stanley Kramer made almost thirty-five films, starting in 1948. I didn't get to mention all the "big" ones, but they also include The Men (in which Marlon Brando makes his screen debut as a disabled veteran), Inherit the Wind (about the Scopes Trial) and 1971's Bless the Beasts & Children (in which he tackles animal rights issues). He was a man who deeply believed in each and every project, which is why he eventually earned the Academy's Irving Thalberg Award.
