Who was Sam Peckinpah?
” And since you’ve found yourself here asking that very question, I feel it is my firm duty to answer it. Peckinpah was a child of the west, born in Fresno California in 1925. Though he was small a boy, and consequently a small man, he was a scrapper, always eager for a fight whether or not he was in the wrong or right. (Hey, that rhy) It was trait that lasted throughout his life – he battled, sometimes verbally, sometimes physically, with the actors and producers of his movies, the film critics who panned him, the women he married and the whores he screwed. He was man perennially in “War” mode, though, ironically, during his brief Army stint at the end of World War II of he saw no action.
