Synopsis by Rob Ferrier

Originally produced for PBS, the American Cinema series examines what is probably the leading American art form: film. Chock full of clips from important films and interviews with the men and women who made them, each episode is an in-depth look at an important facet of the history of American film. This particular episode examines the generation of great Sixties directors, people who challenged traditional thinking on what movies could be about and say.
