The Crown Jewels: America's Oldest Indie Film Company (2016)
*** (out of 4)
William Grefe and Chris Poggiali are two of the men interviewed for this seventeen minute featurette that takes a look at Crown International and their special type of drive-in films that continue to gain new fans each and every year. Director Daniel Griffith does a very good job at taking over three decades worth of material and putting it into such a short running time and by the end of it you really do feel as if you've been given a very good crash course on the subject. There are plenty of clips shown from the movies but even better are the highlighted posted and even some ads for the films. Crown International never really gained the respect that they probably deserve but it's certainly a fascinating collection of movies and this featurette does a nice job showing them off.
