A documentary on DIY producer/director Roger Corman and his alternative approach to making movies in Hollywood.
As this comprehensive, decades-spanning documentary shows, without him, American cinema over the last 50 years would far poorer.
A supremely watchable documentary-tribute to the exploitation king Roger Corman.
A movie buff’s delight.
An éminence grise of the Hollywood counterculture, the film producer/director Roger Corman embodies contradiction, as this affectionate tribute makes clear.
An affectionate tribute.
Stapleton's documentary is more interested in the schlock that came from [Corman's] studio than the occasional masterpieces.
Endless goodwill versus a doc of limited ambition and fitful success.
Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow from Friday February 24, 2012. More info: http://www.glasgowfilm.org/theatre/
