tingly walked into the grounds of one
of the palaces of Dictator Trujillo.
Things looked black for a few minutes,
but See was able to produce creden¬
tials which got him out of the sticky
situation.
See was in the Dominican Republic
on an official assignment, but as usual
he had taken time out to make movies
for his own files. He was under contract
to film the 35 million dollar Interna¬
tional Fair which then was in progress.
The government had flown almost his
entire laboratory to Ciudad Trujillo to
facilitate his work.
One Assignment Leads
To Another
In characteristic fashion See had left
Hollywood headquarters "loaded for
bear." He expected to be gone only five
months, but he had brought more than
enough equipment and supplies "just in
case." He ended by staying nearly a
year. After completing the government
project, he made a documentary film on
the local road building activities of a
construction company.
As described above, many of See's
assignments have had a snow-balling
effect, one bringing on another. While
he was in Mexico on an assignment for
the government, a Guatemalan consul
saw some of his work and signed him
to photograph a film of Guatemala.
After completing this assignment,
See previewed his picture for then
President Castillo Armas.
When See is not shooting pictures in
some hot, tropical locale, invariably he
will be found working in the opposite
extreme - some frigid area of the
world. While in South America, an as¬
signment took him to the heights of the
Chilean Andes where he worked with
difficulty in below-zero temperatures.
Charlie See usually shoots on spec¬
ulation when he is not working under
contract. When Queen Wilhelmina of
the Netherlands toured the United
States recently, he recorded the highpoints of her visit in California on
16mm color film. This investment in
time and film he retrieved later by
screening the films before Dutch
groups in the Los Angeles area.
Later, during a visit to Europe, he
personally handed a print of the film
to the queen at Tjoesdyk Palace. She
kept the picture for six months and
then returned it along with a warm
letter, commending him for his efforts.
As a result, he likely will have no prob¬
lems when he returns to Holland on
future assignments.
Charlie See's toughest assignment, he
