A documentary about two Israeli-born cousins, Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus, who in pursuit of the American Dream turned the Hollywood power structure upside down, producing over 300 films and becoming the most powerful independent film company in the world.
Directed by Sundance Grand Jury Price nominee Hilla Medalia (Web Junkie, To Die in Jerusalem), The Go-Go Boys: The Inside Story of Canon Films is an up close and personal documentary that examines the complex relationship between two contradictory personalities whose combined force fueled their success and eventual collapse. Featuring Jon Voight and Eli Roth as well as archive footage of Sylvester Stallone, Charles Bronson and Chuck Norris. Screened at the 2014 Cannes Classics section.
