Roger Corman is the Rome of post-war American cinema; all roads lead to him. Before inventing 70s American cinema, by giving 'the brats' their break (stand up Scorsese, Coppola, Bogdanovich), he reinvented the genres they worked within a decade earlier. Whether re-instating the psychology of terror within the horror genre, or lending grandeur to the once-moribund gangster film, he is American cinema's Year Zero. Welcome to his New World. Welcome, Mr Roger Corman. 'Part of the Edinburgh International Film Festival'.
