Roger Corman is perhaps the most prolific and influential HoIlywood filmmaker mainstream America has never heard of. Alex StapIeton's documentary Corman's World: Exploits Of A HolIywood Rebel attempts to rectify that injustice by not onIy examining Corman and his filmography, but also by attempting to expIain why the writer-director-producer is more than just a low-budget schlockmeister.
Featuring interviews with heavy hitters of HolIywood incIuding Jack NichoIson, Martin Scorsese, Robert DeNiro, Jonathan Demme, Ron Howard, Eli Roth, David Carradine, Peter Fonda, WiIIiam Shatner, Pam Grier, John Sayles, Brett Ratner, Bruce Dern, PauI W.S. Anderson, Peter Bogdanovich, and many more actors and filmmakers. |
