Abstract

Throughout the 1970s, American filmmaker and documentarian Frederick
Wiseman (Titicut Follies (1967), Belfast, Maine (1999), National Gallery (2014)
and more) had a unique carte-blanche: multi-year contracts from the New
York flagship public television station, WNET, to make movies more or less at
his own pace with budgets of a largesse denied all his peers. He owed this to
the patronage of the highly cultured progamme chief at the station, the writer
and ex-Harper’s editor, Robert Kotlovitz.
