Anecdotes

Chandler is a 1971 American neo-noir film starring Warren Oates and Leslie Caron, who was married at the time to the film's producer Michael Laughlin. The picture was directed by Paul Magwood and based on a story of his own creation. Gloria Grahame and Scatman Crothers appear in cameo roles.

Production

Producer Michael Laughlin and director Paul Magwood were irate at the involvement of MGM studio head James Thomas Aubrey, Jr. in the film's production. They went to the length of taking out a full page, black-bordered ad in the trade papers declaring:

Regarding what was our film Chandler, let's give credit where credit is due. We sadly acknowledge that all editing, post-production as well as additional scenes were executed by James T. Aubrey Jr. We are sorry.

The cutting was so severe and last minute that actors Royal Dano and James Sikking are still listed in the credits, even though their roles were completely removed.
