A self-narrated and consequently potted history of the producer Robert Evans, a man who rose from nowhere and made possible some of the greatest movies of the 1970s. Not least of which being ‘The Godfather'. A prodigious mover and shaker, Evans' rarefied world went belly up when the scandals started to come thicker and faster than the successes.
