Joey Figueroa and Zak Knutson's documentary profile of screenwriter
and director, John Milius. A contemporary of Francis Ford Coppola
and George Lucas during the 1970s, Milius' fame as a screenwriter
will forever be secured by the 'Do I Feel Lucky?' Clint Eastwood
speech in Dirty Harry (1971) and the 'I Love the Smell of Napalm in
the Morning' speech for Robert Duvall in 'Apocalypse Now' (1979).
Famously out-of-sync with the liberal movers and shakers in
Hollywood at the time, Milius' forthright political views and
controversial support of right-of-centre groups like the National
Rifle Association led to claims that he was 'blacklisted' by his
peers. Figueroa and Knutson affectionately trace the film-maker's
career with the help of contributions from friends and family and a
host of Hollywood stars including Francis Ford Coppola, Harrison
Ford, George Lucas, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Martin Scorsese and
Oliver Stone.
Francis Ford Coppola directs this Oscar-winning crime drama
starring Al Pacino and Robert De Niro. It is 1958 and Michael
Corleone (Pacino) has now fully embraced the trappings of a Mafia
boss, leading to conflict with his wife, Kay (Diane Keaton). As he
attempts to expand his crime empire, he thinks of his late father
Vito (De Niro)'s rise to power in New York during the 1920s, but
all of Michael's attempts to emulate Vito and do the best for his
family only pulls them further apart. Both a prequel and sequel to
'The Godfather' (1972), the film was nominated for eleven Oscars,
winning five awards including Best Picture, Best Director and Best
Supporting Actor (De Niro).
