A Legend, and a Visionary...Low-Budget Movie Guru and Star Maker Roger Corman's Second Attempt in Hollywood.
Solidifying a Foundation that would Become a Multi-Decade Whirlwind of Writing, Producing, and Directing.
His Fugal but Creative Style Set the Standard for Enterprising and Artistic Newbie Film-Makers.
With Respect for His Energy, Hutzpah, and Unblemished Success in a Fickle Industry Known for Eating its Young.
Corman's often Repeated Legacy Beyond Making Movies that Make Money,
is His Eye for Spotting and Exploiting Beginning Actors, Writers, and Directors with Talent and Put Them to Work,
Giving Them On-the-Job Training, Working for Peanuts.
The Result was a Dream-Like Road to Artistic and Financial Rewards for some of the Best Movie-Makers that Money Didn't Have to Buy.
The List of Artists He Helped on the Way to Super-Stardom is Long and Uncannily Impressive.
Jack Nicholson, Francis Ford Coppola, Jonathan Demme, Ron Howard and Charles Bronson are just a Few of the Multitude.
Here Rookie Corman mostly Stayed Behind the Scenes Taking Story Credit.
But it was His Talent, Energy and Fortitude that Gassed the Engine of this Modest but Entertaining Little Movie.
With 2 Leads Ireland and Malone that Drove the Central Propulsion to the Finish Line.
Worth a Watch.
