United Kingdom • 1977
Director
Synopsis
British documentary film-maker and producer Tony Maylam invigorated the sports documentary genre with White Rock, an idiosyncratic and utterly engaging account of the XII Olympic Winter Games Innsbruck 1976. He did so by placing music front and center, and by using Hollywood star James Coburn as a "guide for the uninitiated."
