| "The Hanged Man was a very
strange assignment because the original was such a good picture, Ride
The Pink Horse with Robert Montgomery. It was absurd for us to remake
it, because we were not only remaking it on less schedule and less money
in the budget, but we were making it much more complicated. it was extremely
difficult to do a Mardi Gras on the back lot. I shot it with a weak script
that I didn't like, feeling all the time I was making a real flop. And then
during the editing something extraordinary happened. While cutting the film
viciously, in a spirit of revenge, I engendered a real excitement.
I thought the ending was very artificial. It just fell apart. But it was
done with great splash, vigour and colour and the studio was very happy with
it. I hope I don't do any more like that."
