A Fuller Life

Saturday, Jun. 27, 2015

07:00 PM – 08:20 PM
US/Central

Director Samantha Fuller—evoking the spirit of her father, legendary filmmaker Sam Fuller (1912–1997)—shot entirely within “The Shack,” the backyard writing refuge that he filled with notes for future projects.

This documentary follows Sam Fuller on his path from New York tabloid journalist to Hollywood hyphenate—including his experiences as a World War II infantryman. Combining scenes from his films with newly discovered home movies, A Fuller Life is a celebration of a passionate American artist.

Among the celebrities who appear are Jennifer Beals, Robert Carradine, James Franco, Mark Hamill, Buck Henry, and Wim Wenders.
