Fog City Mavericks

Fog City Mavericks (Starz Inside)
4 stars
Though this documentary is lightweight, it is still enjoyable. "Fog City Mavericks" delivers a well-rounded overview of filmmakers originating from the CA bay area. All the big names are profiled: Coppola (both Francis and daughter Sofia), Lucas, Eastwood, and Pixar studios. Alongside these, several lesser-known talents are also showcased. Lovely, panoramic scenes of San Francisco intercut the interview and film clip footage, effectively connecting the subjects to their geographic locality.
