Summary:
Yoram Globus and the late Menahem Golan are two movie-obsessed immigrant cousins who became Hollywood's ultimate gate-crashers. With hair-trigger randomness, these cousins of chaos churned out a breathtaking cavalcade of hits and misses, made movies out of posters, released a sequel before the original film, botched plots, bounced checks and burned careers - and in so doing, changed the way movies were made and marketed. Charts the rise and fall of Cannon Films, a motion picture studio that produced a distinctive line of low-budget films under the leadership of Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus, two movie-obsessed, Israeli cousins whose passion for cinema changed the way movies are made and marketed.
