    THE GREAT NORTHWEST
MATT McCORMICK (In attendance)
THE LUSTY MEN
NICHOLAS RAY
Portland filmmaker Matt McCormick’s film is in-
spired by — and recreates — a 3,200-mile road trip
made in 1958 by four Seattle women who recorded
their journey in an elaborate scrapbook of photos,
postcards, brochures and receipts. Fifty years later,
McCormick found the scrapbook in a thrift store and,
charmed, set out to retrace their route, searching out
every stop that the ladies had so lovingly documented
five decades earlier. The resulting film juxtaposes the
land and landmarks then and now, a double portrait
capturing the eternal and the new. “The emotional un-
dercurrents, along with spectacular cinematography
and wisely restrained storytelling, make THE GREAT
NORTHWEST a film that will awe — and quite pos-
sibly choke up — anyone who loves the green-tinted
paradise we call home.” — Willamette Week
(2012 | 70 minutes)
Robert Mitchum plays the rodeo star too busted up
from injuries to stay on the circuit. He heads home
to Oklahoma and stumbles into an offer to train an
up-and-comer, Arthur Kennedy, whose mostly devot-
ed wife (Susan Hayward) catches his eye. The story
takes to the road with thrilling rodeo footage shot
all the way from Texas to the unmistakable Pendle-
ton Round-Up arena. Director Nicholas Ray takes the
camera right into the gate with the bronco rider and
all the way into the everyday life of the rodeo circuit.
As filmmaker Jaccques Rivette wrote: “If art must re-
veal ‘the heroism of modern life,’ there are few works
that better accomplish this purpose.” The script was
co-adapted by one-time cowboy David Dotort from a
Life magazine story by Claude Stannish.
