Alan Ladd Jr. is the man behind so many great films that almost weren't, but not everyone knows about his career. Laddie: The Man Behind the Movies is a documentary by his daughter Amanda Ladd-Jones, recounting his many triumphs (and some failures) along the road to green-lighting such classics as:
Body Heat
Chariots of Fire
Blade Runner
Night Shift
The Right Stuff
Police Academy
Braveheart
A Fish Called Wanda
Gone Baby Gone
All That Jazz
Young Frankenstein
Kagemusha
The Omen
The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Thelma and Louise
and dozens more.
Features interviews with:
Ridley Scott
Sigourney Weaver
Ron Howard
Mel Gibson
Ben Affleck
George Lucas
Mel Brooks
Morgan Freeman
Richard Donner
Paul Mazursky
and many other collaborators.
A heartfelt tribute by a daughter to her dad that fits right in with our daddy-daughter theme, and will touch the heart of any parent or movie lover.

It must have been tough to be the first son of the first wife of Alan Ladd...Bet he felt pretty neglected.

People who praise Lucas for Star Wars forgot that is thanks to Alan Ladd Jr that he could have made his saga

It's true! Thank you!
