They have been left in the original form they were first published, with the old language and symbols left unaltered." From Wikipedia:Apprentice to Murder is a 1988 thriller film created and developed by Howard K Grossman, directed by Ralph L. Thomas, and starring Donald Sutherland, Chad Lowe and Mia Sara.[3][4]Premise[edit]A teenager (Chad Lowe) is torn between his lover (Mia Sara) and a doctor (Donald Sutherland) of "powwow medicine" in 1920s Pennsylvania.Production[edit]The film was developed by Howard K Grossman based on a murder that took place in 1928 in his home town of York, Pennsylvania under the working title of The Long Lost Friend (the name of a famous pow-wow book) and had its principal photography begin early September, 1986, in Bergen, Norway.[1] According to the September 19, 1986 issue of Variety, the film had a budget of 10 million dollars which was raised by Grossman and was entirely funded by Norwegian money.[1] Apprentice to Murder was entirely shot in Norway.[2] Production was scheduled to finish early November , 1986, but according to Screen International on November 29, 1986, the film was still filming in Norway.[1] By 1987, Grossman who had been developing another project with his longtime friend and Oscar winning screenwriter John Briley (who came to Norway to meet with Grossman's company HOT) convinced Grossman and his director to change the film's title to Apprentice to Murder."
