At that time Marilyn was married to Arthur Miller and so- and Arthur Miller played some part in the making of "Bus Stop"- I don't know if he wrote the script or what. So when we made "Salesman" Arthur Miller got to see the film and, and gave us a wonderful positive quote about how he appreciated the film. And Norman Mailer also gave us a wonderful quote- something to the effect that he thought it told more about America than perhaps any other film. So that was nice also.
Albert Maysles (1926-2015) known for his important documentaries on Muhammad Ali, Jimi Hendrix and The Beatles, pioneered the documentary style known as Direct Cinema. He helped create techniques still widely used in modern documentary production, as well as many of the techniques used in reality TV.
