The Lifelong Friendship of Two Legendary Cinematographers

Laszlo Kovacs and Vilmos Zsigmond escaped from Hungary in 1956 and immigrated to the United States to toil in the underbelly of Hollywood. Suddenly, after ten years, Laszlo's camera broke the rules of cinema with Easy Rider and Vilmos poured "poetic realism" into McCabe & Mrs. Miller, ushering a new wave of American cinema.

Combined with interviews from some of Hollywood's biggest names including: Sandra Bullock, Peter Fonda, Denis Hopper and more, you will see how two kids from Hungary reshaped Hollywood. Essential for film students and lovers of American New Wave Cinema.
