Review of Milius (2013) by Michael K — 24 Jan 2014

A very solid overview of the life and times of one of Hollywood's most underrated filmmakers. The more controversial elements of his personality and his politics are not skirted, but are rather analyzed head on, and while the overall picture painted by the filmmakers is a pretty positive one, I think it's a fair and even-handed look at him.

Also, it's quite telling how highly Milius' contemporaries - particularly Coppola, Lucas, and Spielberg - speak of him, and the doc does a great job of illuminating all of the great films Milius had his hand in, in one form or another.
