The director did Just that for
60 yean, and at his death at age
61 was planning another
western.
Hawks, who created such
classics as “Scarface,” “To
Have and Have Not” and "Gen-
tlemen Prefer Blondes,” is to be
buried Thursday after me-
morial services in Beverly
Hills.
He died Monday night of
complications from a fall he
suffered at his Palm Springs
home several weeks ago.
Hawks suffered a concussion
and was later confined to a
wheelchair. He never recov-
ered.
In 1941, be was nominated for
an Academy Award for “Ser-
geant York." Cooper won for
best actor, but Hawks lost.
In 1974, the Academy of Mo-
tion Picture Arts and Sciences,
which had virtually ignored
him, gave Hawks a special Os-
car for his work as “a master
American filmmaker whose
creative efforts hold a dis-
tinguished place in world cine-
ma.”
Hawks' fondness for westerns
irritated American film critics,
who saw him as an anti-in-
tellectual.
But he did not care. He num-
bered such films as "Rio
Bravo” and “El Dorado”
among his best.
"Every time a man who is a
first-rate director goes after a
western, you come out with a
pretty good picture because a
western's good entertainment,"
he said. “It’s dramatic.”
His credits included dramas
- “To Have and Have Not" and
“The Big Sleep" - and xany
