How I Made A Hundred Movies In Hollywood and never lost a dime
In the high-stakes world of Hollywood, where massive budgets often lead to even more massive losses, Roger Corman stands as a mathematical anomaly. Known as the "Pope of Pop Cinema," Corman produced or directed hundreds of films, famously claiming to have never lost money on a single one (except for the 1962 social drama The Intruder ).
Roger Corman, the "King of the B's," produced over 400 films and directed 50+. Titles include Little Shop of Horrors (shot in two days), The Wild Angels , Death Race 2000 , and The Trip . He launched the careers of Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, James Cameron, Ron Howard, Jack Nicholson, and Robert De Niro.
