Plot summary

This is the first feature-length documentary on legendary director Raoul Walsh. In this 'memoir,' Walsh 'recounts' his career from the silent film era to the tumultuous 1960s. The documentary makes stunning use of rare, personal and production photos and footage, revealing Walsh's extraordinary, adventurous life on and off the set. From his apprenticeship with D.W. Griffith to his discovery of John Wayne and Rock Hudson, from the innovative 'The Thief of Bagdad' (1924) to the widescreen 'The Big Trail' (1930), from his classic work with Cagney, Bogart and Flynn to his mastery of every genre (musicals, comedies, Westerns, gangster, war), Walsh made Hollywood history. His life is nothing less than the story of Hollywood itself. Here's a full-bodied account of one of Hollywood's greatest legends.

Saw it to learn more about Walsh and his work. It was informative and fascinating to learn about his ego / aggrandizement. Saw on TCM.

Good primer.

A look at the life and movies or Raoul Walsh as told in his autobiography. It's a good way to get a sense of what he did, who he was, why he was important, and maybe some of the movies he made that you'd like to watch. It's hardly complete or exhaustive, but as something that lasts ninety minutes, you could do a lot worse. An interesting guy from a time when interesting people went into movies and made interesting movies. You'll probably gain an appreciation for either who he was, what he made, or what he did. Either way, just watch it because reading about why you should watch it isn't as interesting.
