The rise, fall and rise again of Robert Evans, one of Hollywood's most notorious producers, is the focus of this clever documentary. Based on Evans' own memoirs and featuring narration by Evans himself, the film follows his infamous life in Hollywood--from his beginnings as an actor, to his stint as the youngest head of production at Paramount, responsible for The Godfather, Rosemary's Baby, Harold and Maude, and Chinatown, to his drug arrests and fall from grace, and culminating in his emergence in the 1990's as a freelance producer. "One of the most honest films ever made about Hollywood" (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times).
