Dear friends,
With seasons greetings, I am sending along this essay, inspired by a favorite holiday movie. Many friends shared their memories to help me write this back in 2020 -- Chris Brescia, Jan Dudones, Jim Griebsch, Bunk Griffin, Howard Riley, Jim and Keela Rogers, and our dear friend, Natalie Leduc, who, on December 8, 2020 came to the end of her truly wonderful life. We still miss her.
Best wishes from all of us at Historic Saranac Lake.
Amy Catania
--------------------------------
It's a Wonderful Life, Tony Anderson
by Amy Catania
"Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives.
When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole.”
— It’s a Wonderful Life, 1946
This is a good time of year to watch It’s a Wonderful Life. Bedford Falls brings to mind Saranac Lake, and George Bailey reminds us of the wonderful lives of Saranac Lakers from the past like Alton “Tony” Anderson.
Tony Anderson fell ill with tuberculosis while working as a toolmaker in Southington, Connecticut. As a member of the Masons, he received financial help to come to Saranac Lake for treatment in 1919.
“I came here to die,” Tony used to say. Facing death, Tony received a gift, a chance to imagine the world without him. He made his home here and dedicated his life to giving back. He served as village mayor for nine terms. He worked as a volunteer ambulance driver and a plane spotter on top of the Hotel Saranac during the war. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge, the Elks Club, the Rotary, the Boat and Waterway Club, the hospital board, and the blood bank.
Each afternoon, Tony went home to his modest house on South Hope Street and sat on his porch in a cure chair. “Best seat in the house,” he called it. After his afternoon rest, he would go back to the theater for the shows.
Saranac Lake in the 1950s was a picture postcard of Bedford Falls. Everyone knew each other. Kids played together outside through all seasons. Downtown shops bustled year-round. The Adirondack Daily Enterprise was five times thicker than it is today. The theater, the radio station, civic organizations, and places of worship knitted the community together. Like the shadow of death cast by tuberculosis, the horrors of WWII inspired an appreciation for life and a sense of civic responsibility.
But forces were afoot that were beginning to devastate small towns around the country. Everywhere, industry and manufacturing were closing up shop. In Saranac Lake, the TB business came to an end. Jobs dried up and families left. Across America, suburban development was eroding downtown retail. Television offered solitary entertainment that took the place of public activities like going to the movies.
By the late 1960s, Tony Anderson’s beloved theater had fallen on hard times. The impeccably dressed ushers were gone, and, much to Tony’s chagrin, on Wednesday nights the Pontiac was showing titillating foreign films that reflected changing social mores. It seemed that only the bars were prospering. More and more, town was looking like Pottersville, Bedford Falls’ evil twin in the movie. Then, on December 19, 1978, a massive fire devastated the Pontiac Theater. Three years after the fire, Saranac Lake’s longest serving mayor died at the age of 82.
It’s a sad ending to Tony’s story. Real life usually doesn’t get a Hollywood ending. Saranac Lake will always have plenty in common with Bedford Falls and Pottersville. And unlike George Bailey, most of us won’t ever meet our guardian angel.
But “It’s a Wonderful Life” reminds us that, even in the midst of regret and loss, we can find beauty and purpose in daily life. This is one of the most important things we do at Historic Saranac Lake, we honor the lives of the regular people who came before us. We pay attention to people like George, Ernie, Bert, Mary, Mr. Gower, Martini, Harry, the woman at the bank who asks for only $17.50, and even Mr. Potter.
We remember Natalie Leduc, Mary Hotaling, Andy Rawdon, Jane and Walter Webb, and Tony Anderson.
Merry Christmas, movie house! Merry Christmas, Emporium!
Merry Christmas, you wonderful old Building and Loan!
Happy Holidays, Saranac Lake!
Saranac Lake students presented about Tony Anderson at his grave in Pine Ridge Cemetery in 2019, part of Historic Saranac Lake’s annual 5th grade history tour.

Batman v Superman
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is a 2016 American superhero film based on the DC Comics characters Batman and Superman. Distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, it is the follow-up to 2013's Man of Steel and the second film in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU). The film was directed by Zack Snyder, written by Chris Terrio and David S. Gower, and features an ensemble cast that includes Ben Affleck as Batman and Henry Cavill as Superman, Amy Adams, Jesse Eisenberg, Diane Lane, Laurence Fishburne, Jeremy Irons. , Holly Hunter, and Gal Gadot. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is the first live-action film to feature Batman and Superman together, as well as the first live-action cinematic portrayal of Wonder Woman. In the film, criminal mastermind Lex Luthor tricks Batman into a preemptive battle with Superman, who is obsessed with destroying Luthor.
The film was announced at the 2013 San Diego Comic-Con following the release of Man of Steel. Snyder said the film would take inspiration from Frank Miller's Batman comic book series The Dark Knight Returns but clarified that it would follow an original premise. The film incarnation of Batman serves as a cinematic reboot of the character, unlike Christian Bale's previous portrayal of the character in The Dark Knight Trilogy. The film is inspired by the narrative elements of "The Death of Superman". Pre-production began in October 2013 at East Los Angeles College, and principal photography began in May 2014 in Detroit. Additional filming also took place in Illinois and New Mexico, concluding that December.

The Curse of Strahd high rollers stream is at 8pm BST time on Thursdays streamed on Twitch for anyone who wants some A grade entertainment while trapped in their home. (The streams will also be uploaded to youtube on the high rollers channel).

So, I finally got around to having a read through Narcos: The Art and Making of the Show on my day off today and I know others have shared Javi’s and Steve’s profiles from the book already, so thought I would do Carrillo’s (because I love him, your honour).
I love the parts about how Maurice got the role and also how they came up with his character’s name, plus how the writers had to be careful separating Carrillo and Martinez. Let’s just pretend the fifth page doesn’t exist, though 😭
I’ve transcribed the text and put it below the cut if anyone would prefer to read it that way.
Profile: Horacio Carrillo
Colombian Army Colonel Carrillo was head of the police’s Search Bloc unit who gradually earned a reputation for ruthlessness all but equal to that of the drug lords he fought, making Carrillo one of the only men the cartels truly feared. But Carrillo’s risk-taking and confrontational tactics ended with his violent death when one of his raids led to an ambush by Pablo Escobar himself, who personally executed Carrillo.
The creation of Carrillo, a memorable but completely fictional character in the series, came about due to the need to incorporate some questionable aspects of the real-life model for the character, Hugo Martinez, into the show. “We wanted Carrillo to be a highly morally-compromised character but one with a certain dignity,” says Chris Brancato. “And, so, at first, to be honest, the model was Martinez, and I even spoke to Martinez on the phone with a translator very briefly. But there were a couple of things going on. We didn’t have his life rights, and a couple of things I wanted the character to do, potentially, not only did Martinez not do those things, it was potentially defamatory in my opinion to call the character Martinez and have him do these things. So Carrillo was a fictional character – José and I were at Sunset Gower Studios walking to a restaurant and I said, “We need a name for this fictional character,” and I literally stepped on a star on the sidewalk that was for Leo Carrillo, a famous film director from the thirties or something, and José said, ‘How about Carrillo? That sounds Colombian.’”
Actor Maurice Compte brought a quiet power to the character that made his death at the hands of Escobar all the more shocking. “I had done a pilot for F/X, the very first year F/X came into being, that unfortunately competed against The Shield and lost, and it was called Dope,” Brancato says. “It was about drug trafficking in Los Angeles and it turned out to be a very good pilot and one of the better scripts I’ve ever written, and F/X couldn’t decide which of the shows to pick up and they went with The Shield, so Dope was the one that got away.
The actor who played the bad guy in Dope was Maurice Compte, so lo and behold we’re looking for someone to play Carrillo and we started off looking for actors of some note in South America. We’re looking at like fifty, fifty-five, sixty-year old guys and we were kind of frustrated because they all felt kind of familiar, and then Eric and I were talking and we thought what if the guy was younger? So Carmen plays the tape of this guy reading very dry and very matter-of-fact and I thought this guy seems familiar, where do I know this guy from? And then I realized it’s the guy from Dope, Maurice. I feel like now with Narcos I’m getting the chance to do this subject matter I really like and the idea that [Maurice] could come back and be part of it is like kismet to me. So he came back and was great.”

Colonel Carrillo was one of the few government or military figures who seemed as ruthless as Escobar and one of the only men seemingly capable of forming a threat to the drug lord. Tragically, in one of the most shocking turns of the season, Carrillo found himself betrayed just as it seemed he was on the cusp of bringing Escobar to heel in ‘The Good, the Bad, and the Dead.’ With Carrillo wounded by Escobar’s men, Escobar revealed a souvenir that Carrillo had sent him as a warning – a bullet, intended for Pablo, sent by a courier to the drug lord: one that Escobar then used to execute the Search Bloc commander.
Producer Jesse Rose Moore said that the death of Carrillo was planned to be completely unexpected. “Bringing him back in season two and then almost immediately killing him off was meant to be shocking,” Moore explained, noting that the character send-off also differentiated Carrillo from Search Bloc commander Hugo Martinez. “Martinez wasn’t throwing people out of helicopters like Carrillo. Murphy always walks a pretty straight line – he’s a cop, he believes in right and wrong, he’s trying to be morally the way he should. Peña is a bit more gray – less black and white, and Carrillo, similarly, you have to do bad things sometimes to take down bad people.” Carrillo represented a level of amorality that was illustrated in degrees with the show’s leads.
