	John Milius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A self-styled "Zen anarchist", Milius is a member of the Board of Directors of the National Rifle Association, an avid gun collector and a strong opponent of gun control laws.

		Milius also contributed to the famous USS Indianapolis monologue for the film Jaws, and suggested to Steven Spielberg the "bookend" scenes in the military graveyard in Normandy which were used at the beginning and end of Saving Private Ryan.

	John Milius
		American director John Milius is regarded by some Hollywoodites as the living embodiment of the word "macho;" with this in mind, it is understandable that Milius would want to manifest his rugged view of the world in films after being rejected by the Marines for medical reasons.
		Milius' first major writing job was Evel Knievel (1969), a two-fisted biopic of the famed stunt driver.
		Milius' first directorial effort, Dillinger (1973), gave evidence of Roger Corman's penny-pinching influence, but the film's combination of stylistic bloodletting and strong male bonding was pure Milius.

	VariaGallery: "Dillinger"
		John deals in images that he visualizes in his mind's eye and I was, as his cinematographer, his instrument to realize them.
		As is typical of a Milius hero, Dillinger was a larger than life individual who lived his life according to his own instinctive drive and carved out a full chapter in the annals of legend.
		While John had all the facts, known and surmised, his take on the story was, perhaps, to suggest why an audacious bank robber could capture the imagination of the public while his hand was in their pockets.

	THE WIND AND THE LION - DVD
		Based extremely loosely on an actual event, what John Milius' The Wind and the Lion is better examined as is a treatise, and an informed one, on America's continuing role as an Imperialist force bullying esteem under the title of World's Policeman.
		Milius provides an extremely detailed, often very technical feature-length commentary that is a must for gun nuts and is, itself, a little revisionist ("I never harmed any horses"--yep).
		Milius is full of himself but, like his heroes, he backs it up with a mixture of can-do and bravado.

		It was never a question of whether John Milius’ Red Dawn would become a reference point in the war on terror; it was only a question of when and how.
		The movie was immediately recalled by the press as "Cold War propaganda" and "jingoistic." But the central theme of the story–the bitterness of dying to protect one’s country–was overlooked, as was the uncomfortable analogy to the war against insurgents in Iraq.
		John Milius, the film’s writer and director, who also co-wrote Apocalypse Now and Conan the Barbarian, discusses making Red Dawn, an American mujahideen and Bush’s preemptive world.

		About the only idea Milius seems to present with any veracity is that the FBI, in this case in the person of Melvin Purvis(Johnson), were shameless grandstanders whose pursuit of gangsters was not so much for the public welfare but for personal glory and that point is beaten into the ground.

		John Huston is an ably sophisticated actor in the role of John Hay, the Secretary of State.
		I believe the violence of this construction is meant to achieve a surreal leap of the mind, and that is infinitely to be preferred over the mindless canting rubbish written about this film.
		The work appears to fall between two stools, the grinding New York Times bestseller and the video game, by dint of “studio interference” (according to Milius) abstracting the director’s chair, but evidence remains of whatever was intended, here and there.

		More recently, Milius enjoyed one of his rare blockbuster successes as the co-scripter of "Clear and Present Danger" (1994).
		As a writer-director, Milius crafts luridly dark comic book movies that convey both passion and ideological incoherence, but he stages action scenes with rare authority.
		Milius has also enjoyed a rather quirky career as a producer, overseeing (and often providing stories) for such diverse fare as Spielberg's wacky "1941" and "Hardcore" (both 1979), Paul Schrader's distinctive take on "The Searchers" set in the world of pornography as well as Robert Zemeckis' good-natured "Used Cars" (1980).
