Avnet, who was an American Film Institute directing fellow in 1973 and used producing as a means to become a director, first in 1984 on the Craig T. Nelson-fronted TV show Call to Glory, said he focused his attention on the historical context of the developing screenplay.
Avnet said that his cinematographer, Denis Lenoir, turned out to be a catch-on-the-fly catch, just the kind of shooter he was looking for to give the production some of its danger and documentary look.
Avnet said he feels he's been successful in his films because he is deliberately slow in the casting process.
