Description

Storyboard artist Harold Michelson and film researcher Lillian Michelson are two unsung heroes of Hollywood’s Golden Age. They worked on hundreds of renowned films including The Birds, The Graduate, Fiddler On The Roof and many more. Although the couple was responsible for some of Hollywood’s most iconic examples of visual storytelling, their contributions remain largely uncredited. Through a mix of love letters, film clips and candid conversations with Mel Brooks, Francis Ford Coppola and others, their remarkable marriage and extraordinary careers are chronicled through six decades of movie-making history.
