Norman Jewison (Life & Times)
As a tribute to Norman Jewison, who passed away in January, aged 97, we’ve unearthed a profile of the versatile director of In the Heat of the Night; Fiddler on the Roof; Moonstruck; and The Hurricane. Jewison was one of the most successful directors of his era, and though his film career was entirely centered in Hollywood he was always a proud Canadian, as this 1996 CBC profile for the Life & Times series shows. Directed by Bruce McDonald and shot by Peter Mettler, the film allows Jewison to tell his story while crossing Canada by rail, en route to the Vancouver International Film Festival.
