Corman's World: Exploits of a Hollywood Rebel

Director Alex Stapleton’s fascinating and entertaining documentary on Roger Corman, one of American cinema’s most compelling—and likable—figures, world-premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. Corman’s World not only explores the producer-director’s vast body of work—over three hundred titles and counting—but also offers insight from both expected luminaries who flourished under Corman’s tutelage—including Peter Fonda, Bruce Dern, Joe Dante, Ron Howard, and Pam Grier—and Corman graduates who seldom do interviews—Jack Nicholson, to name just one. This documentary offers a complete look at the complete filmmaker.
