Vintage LAPD Crime Scene Photos
This catalog is the result of hundreds of hours of sifting through countless boxes tightly packed with everyday dimestore #10 white letter envelopes, sealed and cut in half to make a convenient open-ended pouch, each containing the forensic negatives for a single case. On most of the envelopes is a hand-written "Division of Report", or DR, number. The DR number uniquely identifies each case and often appears hand-written directly on the negatives. The name or initials of the photographer can also be seen on many of the negatives.

Burt Reynolds On Sharky's Machine
Author Sidney Sheldon first mentioned William Diehl`s novel Sharky`s Machine to me at a party. Soon afterward Clint Eastwood sent me a copy of the same best-selling book with a note saying: "This is Dirty Harry in Atlanta!" Discovering it combined elements of two of my favorite movies, Laura (1944) and Rear Window (1954), I persuaded newly formed partners Orion Pictures and Warner Brothers to acquire the screen rights for me. The kind of film Robert Aldrich would`ve been great at, I knew from the get-go I had to direct. Granted complete creative control, for me only the third time this had happened, I assembled my cast. The film had one of the best crews I`ve ever worked with. Let me just say this about Charles Durning. He may be America`s finest working actor today. Right down to the soundtrack, a jazz fiend, I called my own list of all-stars. The picture opened at the end of the year to critical reviews that were beyond my expectations. But when even the New York Time`s Vincent Canby also got it, I was bowled over. The reviews made me a hot director.
