“Life is a journey,” Lt. Colonel George Stevens wrote in his wartime journal. “And it’s always most interesting when you’re not sure where you’re going.” Signposts marking Stevens’ life journey are here in a celebration of his work and times. Filmmakers such as Christopher Nolan, Mike Nichols, Martin Scorsese, and Guillermo del Toro celebrate the majesty and humanity of his work. A Filmmaker’s Journey captures the moviemaker’s career sweep from laugh-filled early works to penetrating postwar tales of social consciousness that led to two Oscars for outstanding directing. The films explored are unforgettable: Alice Adams, Swing Time, Gunga Din, A Place in the Sun, Shane, and Giant—plus Stevens’ own color combat footage he shot during World War II in Europe. The emotional impact is lasting. It’s a journey well worth taking, now more than ever—this acclaimed 1984 documentary has been meticulously restored in a 4K HDR presentation. The Warner Archive Collection is proud to be the distributor of George Stevens Jr.’s outstanding documentary which brilliantly chronicles the cinematic legacy of his father.
