Everyone saw him differently. Nobody knew who he really was. "So I made up a character for Pacino who would have done and said what I think John would have done and said." Besides the Pacino role, Pierson says the character of the wife was farthest from the truth. "John's wife Carmen JsS was a little fat and had the same style of machine-gun i delivery but she wasn't nearly that bad.

I can't stand how Sidney cast the role or how Susan Peretz played her. I dont blame Carmen for really being upset with that portrayal "Out of fairness to the real people in the bank, it should be made clear that I never met any of them except the bank manager. The cop played by Charles Durning was also a ficitious character." Pierson says he is more than a little angry at the campaign which is selling the Al Pacino HieArmy's prize rxjmangiineapgs tumonthegas! BY MART MURPHY Timet Staff Writer Good News for Filmex: The Los Angeles City Counca passed a resolution Tuesday giving Filmex $40,000 for two free daytime film series during the two-week film festival. Producer-director Robert Wise, Filmex co-director Gary Abrahams and teacher Carlton Moss spoke in be- -half of the project It was passed by a 10 to 1 vote and sent to Mayor Bradley. Paramount Pictures' "Mahogany," starring Diana Ross and directed by Berry Gordy, set a house record at New York's Loews State II last Wednesday when it grossed $15,420.

The previous opening record was set byjThe Godfather" which opened at $13,586. Castings and Script Assignments: Bob Merrill will write the screenplay bf "The Lonely Lady," Harold Robbins' new novel for Universal. In production is Merrill's screenplay from a book by Carlotta Monti C. Fields and Me" Lila Garrett and George Kirgo are preparing the screenplay for The Tough Customer," a Palomar Produc-, tions theatrical release Jane Wyatt has a principal role in "Treasure of Matecumbe," a Walt Disney film Ned Beatty joins the cast of Paramount's "The Big Bus." Susan Tyrrell has been signed to co-star in Max-Palevsky and Peter Bart's "Islands in the Stream," starring George C. Scott.

The film "Dog Day Afternoon" is a story of armed bank robbery, bisexuality, transsexualism, media-mesmerizing, crowd-mesmerizing and murder. It is being presented to the movie-going public as a documentarylike drama based on fact. But Frank Pierson, who developed and wrote the screenplay for Sidney Lumet to direct, says that what is on screen is "due to a hell of a lot of imagination. My imagination. My research and interviews with almost everyone involved." Pierson is staking his claim now so that when Academy Award time comes around he may be eligible for a nomination in the category of original screenplay as opposed to best screenplay adapted from another medium.

The other medium in question is a magazine article by P. F. Kluge and Thomas Moore which appeared in Life magazine in September 1972. Pierson indicates that he used the article as part of his research but that the main character, played by Al Pacino, and key people and events surrounding the bank robbery were "totally fictional." The actual event took place Aug. 22, 1972.

"Nobody knows the real bank robber (John Wojtowicz, alias Littlejohn Busso, who is serving time in Lewisberg-Penitentiary). He probably doesn't even know himself. Says Pierson, "We tried a number of times to see him in' prison but he kept insisting on more money. I don't think he ever intended to talk to me. "In talking to people in the bank and his family I put together a fascinating picture of a man who had known film as a true story.

He intends to take his case before the Writers Guild. "Let them look at the Life article and my script and make a decision for themselves," Pierson said. Sidney Lumet, the director, was unavailable for comment. Pierson now turns his attention toward a final version of the remake of "A Star Is Born," a screenplay which has been rewritten many times. Jon Peters is the producer.

"What's fascinating about this version," says Pierson, "is that attitudes have changed so much toward success, failure, man-woman relationships and stardom that there will be a much greater difference between this film and the versions which were made in '53 and '36. The problem is to update a story which is basically a sentimental romance in a time when people are harsher and less sentimental. It's a real challenge." Dino De Laurentiis and Nat Cohen of EMI Film Distributors Ltd. have formed a distribution association. EMI will exclusively handle De Laurentiis films in the United Kingdom.

Upcoming for De Laurentiis are "Buffalo Bill and the Indians" starring Paul Newman, Joel Grey and Geraldine Chaplin with Robert Altman as director; Michael Crichton's "The Great Train and "Raging Bull" to be directed by Martin Scorsese, starring Robert DeNiro. Jumping on the Bandwagon Department It was inevitable in this era of. uninspired movies that a film company would announce the making of "Claws." It is AJP's film about a man-killing bear. Alan Caillou will write the screenplay.
