RIP Norman Jewison

#1 Post by Bob Juch » Mon Jan 22, 2024 4:59 pm

Norman Jewison, a director whose Oscar-winning films included “In the Heat of the Night” and “Moonstruck,” has died at 97.

Mr. Jewison, who also directed the big-budget musical “Fiddler on the Roof,” was best known for making films that addressed social issues.

Teach a child to be polite and courteous in the home and, when he grows up, he'll never be able to drive in New Jersey.

I didn't know I could credit two of my favorite movies to one person. He'll be missed.
