by Michael Deeley (Author)
One man links "The Deer Hunter", "Blade Runner", "The Italian Job", "Don't Look Now", "The Wicker Man" and "The Man Who Fell To Earth". Producer Michael Deeley, an urbane Englishman in Hollywood, had to fight wars to get these movies made, from defending the legendary sex scene of "Don't Look Now" from a disapproving Warren Beatty to seizing control of "Convoy" from a cocaine-ridden Sam Peckinpah. This is a no-holds-barred look at the true stories behind some of the greatest cult movies ever made.
