Andy Griffith Tames Fury On Screen In A Face in the Crowd
HAL BOYLE notes Andy Griffith’s rapid method for emotional control as he plays Lonesome Rhodes in Elia Kazan’s A Face in the Crowd. Griffith recalls tearing chairs to evoke frenzy, then redo scenes with timing, while describing the film’s tense arc from vaudeville to political ambition and public downfall. He also discusses balancing work with home life amid a controversial rise in fame. The column follows Griffith’s transition from stage to film, and his reflections on the craft and its pressures.
