Silva, Arturo
- Abstract
The article discusses the motion picture "Gun Crazy," directed by Joseph H. Lewis, and the idea of mad love within the movie. The movie stars John Dahl and Peggy Cummins. The author explains that the images in the movie make use of long takes, zooming, and craning to create a sense of obstructed momentum and an avoidance of an ending. The article discusses the cinematography of cameraman Russell Harlan. The article also discusses symbolism in the movie, the idea of mad love in other movies, and the movie's narrative structure.
