A Winter’s War: Keith Gordon on A Midnight Clear
Keith Gordon’s anti-war film A MIDNIGHT CLEAR, filmed in 1991 and released in 1992, was based on William Wharton’s novel and tells the story of six young US soldiers, played by Ethan Hawke, Gary Sinese, Peter Berg, Frank Whaley, Arye Gross and Kevin Dillon, in the Ardennes forest in December 1944. In this in-depth interview-based documentary, filmed in early December 2011 in Mr. Gordon’s home in Los Angeles, the director-writer discusses all aspects of the filmmaking process, from adapting Wharton’s novel and finding the actors to shooting in snow-covered Utah and marketing the film. A passionate, captivating monolgue by one of America’s most dedicated independent filmmakers!
