Another Time, Another Place

"Another Time, Another Place" repurposes roughly 50% of a shelved feature film shot in 1971 entitled "The Forests Are Nearly All Gone Now." Alexandra Hay was the lead in "Forests," which was conceived as an independent version of the kind of "woman's picture" that Hollywood made in the 1950s. After principal photography was completed, writer/director Clyde Ware shelved the film for personal reasons. In the mid-1980s, Ware was convinced to resurrect the project, but instead of completing "Forests" as originally conceived and filmed - a "woman's picture" with Alexandra Hay in the lead - Ware decided to use only half of the 1971 footage as an extended "flashback" for a new film. In 1988, Ware hired different actors and rehired Rod McCary to film scenes set in "the present" that would act as a framing device for the 1971 footage. Ware finished this project as "Another Time, Another Place," which carries a copyright date of 1989.
