comment |
A 2014 documentary by Mark Hartley about the rise and fall of The Cannon Group. In particular, it focuses on Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus, the Israeli filmmakers who owned Cannon from 1979-1989 in an ultimately failed bid to become Hollywood moguls. During their reign, Cannon would produce some of the most cheesiest, exploitative, yet beloved films ever made, primarily action-focused, making a star out of Chuck Norris and breathing new life into Charles Bronson's career.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })This page is a work-in-progress. |

Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: Bo Derek recounts that Golan threatened to take away her ranch when Bolero opened poorly. He threw her and her director husband under the bus for making Bolero "too sexy" (even though Menahem demanded the film be more sexy), and finally Cannon stole photos of Derek from her suitcase and put them in ads. |

Cloud Cuckoo Lander: Nearly everyone interviewed have described Menahem Golan as being this. The number of naive things he said or did is enough to constitute its own page! |

invokedFollow the Leader: Menahem saw himself as the next Ken Russell and saw The Apple as his Tommy. Menahem successfully capitalized off of the breakdancing craze with Breakin'. Yoram's Lambada and Menahem's The Forbidden Dance were taking advantage of what they thought was going to be a growing dance craze with Lambada. The box-office failure of both movies proved otherwise.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) |
