Robert Mulligan: Stalking Moon
built 263 days ago
Employed by the CBS network, Mulligan began his television career at the bottom of the ladder, working as a messenger boy. He worked his way up, learning the business to where in 1948 he was directing important dramatic series. In 1959 he won an Emmy Award for directing The Moon and Sixpence, a made-for-television production that marked the American small-screen debut of Sir Laurence Olivier.

After The Stalking Moon, Pakula and Mulligan dissolved their partnership, Pakula choosing to produce and direct his own productions. His first film, The Sterile Cuckoo, was an adolescent love story reminiscent of the films he and Mulligan had made, but with Klute Pakula established his own identity as a film maker, and his subsequent films all deal, as no Mulligan film does, with the struggle between the individual and the invisible machinery of a corrupt corporate power, striking a decidedly more moral attitude and a more political note than any Mulligan film, even the seemingly committed and political The Pursuit of Happiness.

Miss Kate's house has architecture typical of one strand of Mulligan, resembling the house in The Man in the Moon. It is wooden, with rich interior paneling. It is white outside, and two stories high. It has elaborate porches. It is full of "repeated modules", such as the pillars and sections of the porch, and the numerous window shutters in Miss Kate's room. All of these features are Mulligan trademarks.
