John Wayne's latest film, 'The Shootist', the story of the last days of a dying gunfighter, is just about to go on general release. It is the work of Don Siegel, who also directed 'Charley Varrick', 'Coogan's Bluff', 'Dirty Harry' and many other violent thrillers. In Hollywood, Siegel talks about the problems of the director who is typecast by his success in one specialised genre.
