References for "Location Shooting" from Film Literature Index, 1973 and 1974
"Scenario for an 'NG'; or what every young filmmaker should know about locations but was afraid to ask." BUSINESS SCREEN 34: 24-25, Jan-Feb 1973.
"Arriflex 35 BC Makes Production Debut in Across 110th St." AM CIN 54(5), August 1972, 876-877.
"Question of the Month: What sort of difficulties did you encounter while shooting abroad and how did you surmount them?" J. Newby and others. MILLIMETER 2:32-3, Nov. 1974.
Film LIT index also references a publication titled "Making Films in New York" - possibly put out by the Mayor's Office? The Jerome Hill Archives at the Anthology Film Archives in New York appears to have editions of this for 1967 and 1972 - no mention of 1974.

Jean Baptiste-Thoret, who has written Le Cinéma américain des années 70, writes an obtuse piece for Senses of Cinema here:
http://www.sensesofcinema.com/2011/feature-articles/the-seventies-reloaded-what-does-the-cinema-think-about-when-it-dreams-of-baudrillard/
Lots of nonsense, but could prove useful at some point for disagreeing with.

Contemporary interview with Gordon Willis in The Boston Globe by Mark Feeny January 14 2007. Conrad Hall calls Willis "The Prince of Darkness."
Chapter 1 should focus more on Klute and the status of noir in the early 1970s. Quote Naremore on the problems and possibilities of colorized noir. Note Straw's account of the mulitplicity of noir-like tags: film-blanc, film-gris, etc. Straw's development of tabloid crime aesthetic based on true crime digest covers that feature place-less b&w crime scenes in broad daylight (as opposed to hi-contrast, or Wee Gee-like crime scenes) could be drawn into parallel with "figures in windows" aesthetic. Perhaps also verite could be mentioned here as THE b&w moving image of the 1960s. Color would be associated with technicolor/H-wood artifice. Also ref. opening essay to recent Neo-Noir anthology.
