As Maggie wandered in the rain, she passed a newspaper vending machine, where the Springwood newspaper headlines read: "NINE, TEN, NEVER SLEEP AGAIN.]As the camera zoom pulls back, the anti-hero character with the malevolent, cold stare is shown sitting amidst his kingly court of teenaged gang of "droogs" - Georgie (James Marcus), Dim (Warren Clarke), and Pete (Michael Tarn)."Bard""s young son Bain (John Bell) watched his father on the town""s tower as his arrows bounced harmlessly off he solid-armored plates of Smaug""s scaled hide.He was becoming known for his trademark sensual, kaleidoscopic patterns of carefully-positioned, often scantily-clad chorus girls with props photographed from above (his "top shot"), from swooping cranes, from the trench below the stage, or from cameras placed on specially-designed tracks to capture audacious camera movements.The immortalized coach is brought to life in this excellent, episodic film characterization directed by Lloyd Bacon - it portrays his sportsmanship, emphasis on teamwork, his determination to win, and his wholesome influence on the many young men who played on his squads.
