Digging deep into the archives for rare and revealing material to accompany interviews with many of his collaborators and intimates, filmmaker Amy Scott packs a lot into 90 minutes with this insightful and warm look at an artist whose best work always revealed a heightened social conscience.
Hollywood Reporter
Numerous landmark directors did remarkable work in Hollywood in the 1970s, but a convincing argument can be made that Hal Ashby and his films represented that decade at its best.
Los Angeles Times
Product Description:
Long-time media producer Amy Scott's feature documentary debut examines the life and artistic legacy of overlooked award-winning film director Hal Ashby. Ashby helmed a string of ‘70s Oscar-winning classic films, but would eventually be outshone by his contemporaries (Coppola, Scorsese, Lucas, and Spielberg). Scott focuses on his uncompromising artistry and his contributions to the New Hollywood wave of filmmaking.
