Thirty-six years old. Failing studio. Robert Evans took over Paramount when it was circling the drain. Over eight years he greenlit The Godfather, Chinatown, Rosemary's Baby, Love Story, Harold and Maude. Last place to industry leader. He'd been a mediocre actor before pivoting. No formal training in running a studio. Just instincts and relationships with directors like Coppola and Polanski. #producer #hollywood #filmproducer #filmmaking #cinema #filmindustry #hollywoodhistory #moviemaking #prod
